Each year Colorado is required to create a new jury list. A list of names is created including voter records, drivers’ licenses, non-driver ids, and state income tax records.

Summonses are processed and mailed by a vendor, not local jury commissioners.
Why do I keep getting summoned after I've moved, my address has changed, or my name has changed?
FAQ Item
Jurors are randomly selected and summonsed from driver license records, the Department of Revenue, and voter registration lists by means of a computerized method. To ensure your name and address are correct on your juror summons, you will need to update your personal information with all of these agencies.
- Colorado Department of Revenue-Division of Motor Vehicles
- Department of Revenue
- Colorado Secretary of State-Voter Registration
Qualifying situations to update your information:
If you have moved out of state and have registered to vote with your current state you will need to withdrawal from the Colorado Secretary of State-Voter Registration to avoid further jury summonses in the state of Colorado. Registering to vote and voting in the new state will not withdrawal you from Colorado Voter Registration.
If you have married and/or changed your legal name you will need to update your name with these agencies to avoid duplicate summonses with different names (i.e., Mary Joe Smith to Mary Joe Smith-Lang). Variation of names with these agencies can cause you to receive more than one summons a year because the system does not recognize it is the same person.
