Since Colorado participates in the Interstate Compact for Adult Offender Supervision and the Interstate Compact for Juveniles which govern the movement of offenders between states it may be possible to transfer probation to Colorado. Generally, you must have family or employment to be seriously considered. Talk to your Probation Officer about the requirements and the process. You must apply through the Adult or Juvenile Compact office of the state you are in and be accepted by Colorado prior to moving.

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.
