This Is Not a Court or Government Office. Colorado Court Docket has no official case file and cannot set or change a hearing, remove or seal a case, issue a certified copy, or give legal advice. For an official action or record, contact the Clerk of Court or other court named on the case. Colorado has local court records offices; there is no single statewide case-record counter.
Need an Official Docket or Record?
Choose the channel that matches the question. Colorado's calendar, case-history vendor, document-request form, and local court file serve different purposes:
- Upcoming state-court hearing: use the Colorado Judicial Branch Docket Search calendar, then verify changes with the court that issued the notice
- Case history: the Branch's Access Guide links to paid CoCourts Register of Action searches; its results are not the official record and may omit information
- Full docket or certified copy: submit the Branch's Record/Document Request Form or contact the Clerk of Court through Browse Counties
- A case from another local system: Denver County Court and municipal-court matters must be requested from the court or city named on the notice, not assumed to be in the state calendar
- How the courts fit together: Court Structure explains which trial or appellate court keeps each record
The Clerk of Court in the county where a state trial case was filed holds its official file. A request is generally answered within three business days, subject to extenuating circumstances; older archives, restricted files, and transcripts can take longer. Find the county office through Browse Counties, or follow the local court named on a municipal or Denver County Court matter.
