Oral Arguments for June 2025
Oral Argument
- When a child is adopted, this ends all of the birth parents' rights and responsibilities. A birth parent cannot just reappear one day and try to reclaim the child.
- Guardianship does not sever the rights and responsibilities of the birth parents, but means that a caregiver is responsible for the care and custody of the child.
- Legal custody is different than guardianship in that it may be easier to receive government services from the state if you are a guardian rather than a legal custodian.
Do I need a background check?
FAQ Item
Yes. Persons petitioning the court to adopt a child, and all adults residing in the home, must complete three background checks:
- Colorado Bureau of Investigation (CBI) background check
- FBI Fingerprint Identification
- Child Abuse and Neglect Records Check (CDHS TRAILS)
Background checks must be conducted within 90 days prior to filing. Petitioner should attach copies of all three background checks to the petition.
