General Information

In case of INCLEMENT WEATHER, please call 303 313-1771 and listen to the recording for delays or closures BEFORE traveling to the courthouse.

The Courthouse doors open M-F at 7:30 a.m.  General public, including those who require ADA access, will enter at the main entrance between the two courthouses. Jurors will go to Courthouse 1 to report at the Jury Assembly Room 121. You will be going through security screening similar to airport security screening. Please plan accordingly and allow an extra 10-20 minutes to arrive to the jury assembly room on time.

Your jury summons is a legal document. Please read your entire summons.

For reporting information, click on the REPORTING SCHEDULE tab above. If your juror number is required to report, please come to the Jury Assembly room on your scheduled date and within the time range provided.  You cannot be excused on the day of your service.  A typical day of jury service is from 8 AM to 5 PM.  Please fill out your questionnaire and have your entire summons with you when you report. CHILDREN ARE NOT ALLOWED.  If your juror number is excused, you do NOT have to report and this concludes your jury service for the current calendar year.

Disqualifications and postponement requests should be made before your jury service date. For a postponement, please go the POSTPONEMENT tab above and select a Monday or Tuesday within the next few months when you know you can appear. Per Colorado statutes, you are entitled to one postponement per year. In order to expedite processing, please contact us via one form of communication ONLY (E-mail, fax, phone, or US Postal Service), as multiple requests result in a delayed response time. Thank you for your cooperation.

Reading materials and snacks are permitted in the Jury Assembly Room, and there is a smoking patio for your convenience. You will also be filling out several forms; if you need reading glasses to complete them, please make sure to bring them.
