| Register a Divorce Decree |
Description
Use these forms to register a divorce decree, you got in another state, with Colorado.
This process isn't for everyone. Don't use these forms if:
- You want to register a support order (§14-5-601 - 615, C.R.S.) or
- You want to register an order regarding child-custody determination (§14-13-305, C.R.S.)
Once a foreign decree is registered you can then request changes or enforcement of those orders.
