Beware of jury duty phone scams! The community is urged to be vigilant regarding an active telephone impersonation scam. These scams typically occur in the form of a phone call, where an individual impersonates someone from the local sheriff’s office or court and requests money due to a missed jury summons.

Note that law enforcement or courts will never reach out by phone to demand money for a missed jury summons, and these should be ignored. Correspondence from court jury offices regarding a missed summons will arrive in the form of an official legal document in the mail, titled “Failure to Appear Notice”.

If you receive a suspicious call from someone alleging to be a police officer, please report the information to your local sheriff’s department and notify the Colorado State Attorney General’s Office of the activity by visiting their Stop Fraud Colorado website. Reports of fraud or scams may also be reported to the Federal Trade Commission.

To check whether you received a jury summons, please contact your county jury commissioner https://www.coloradojudicial.gov/jury/jury-commissioners-county 

There are three types of fees:

1. (Court) Statutory Filing Fees: Filings fees for specific filings. These are the same filing fees that are charged at the clerk’s office. These fees are not charged until the filing is accepted by the court. They can be waived if the courts grants a fee waiver. Currently, you can't E-File if you have received a fee waiver. 

2. (CCE) E-Filing Fees: The $12 fee charged per filing. You can file as many documents as you need in one filing. This fee is not charged until the filing is accepted by the court.

3. (*CCE & USPS) Service Fees: These are the fees charged when a party requests the E-Filing system to provide Service. Service occurs when the party submits the filing. These fees are non-refundable. If the other party has a CCE account, they are automatically Served, and a $12 fee is charged. That information is included in the terms and conditions when the E-Filing account is created. If USPS Service is requested, the fees are based on the number of pages.

CCE (Colorado Courts E-Filing): There is a $12 fee to serve the other party if they have a CCE account.

USPS (United States Postal Service, a.k.a. US Mail): Review the E-Filing Pricing Model.

Yes, but each account must be tied to an organization. And as an attorney, you can have more than one account tied to your bar number and housed in different organizations. However, if you choose to maintain multiple accounts, there are several important caveats to note with cases you initiated through LexisNexis (historical cases) that were imported into the Colorado Courts E-Filing system.

The courts case management system does not tie your bar number to an organization. Therefore, when you have multiple accounts, the system will not know by default which account should be tied to which organization in your historical cases. As a result, until you file a document in these historical cases through one of your accounts, the following limitations will apply in each case:

• Staff within your organizations will not have access to the case’s suppressed and protected documents.
• Staff within your office will not have access to a suppressed case or a probate case.
• Opposing counsel will not be able to E-Serve you in the case.  

After you or your staff files into these historical cases using one of your accounts, the system will then be able to tie the historical cases to the proper organization. This will restore your staff's access to protected and suppressed documents and to suppressed cases and probate cases, as well as opposing counsel’s ability to E-Serve you. 

In addition, your email address will be your user ID. Your email address must be unique for each account. Thus, if you wish to maintain different accounts, you must use a different email address for each.

Your case should be filed in the county where you or the Co-Petitioner/Respondent resides. Either party must reside in Colorado for at least 90 days prior to the filing of the Petition.
