NOTICE REGARDING COVID-19:  PLEASE DO NOT COME TO THE COURTHOUSE if: (1) you have been diagnosed with COVID-19 and you have not completed the required public health mandated isolation; (2) you have been in direct contact with someone who has been diagnosed with COVID-19 within the past fourteen days; (3) you are experiencing a fever, cough, shortness of breath, or any other respiratory illness symptoms. If you are summoned to report for jury duty, please contact the jury commissioner at (970) 252-4302 to reschedule your jury service. Some jurors are in a high-risk group.  These include those over 65 years of age or persons who have an underlying medical condition which increases their risk if they are exposed to the virus. This would also include any individual that may be in a household with any individual who may have underlying medical conditions which would increase the risk of being exposed.  If you believe you are in any of these groups, please call the Jury Commissioner at (970) 252-4302.

The Court takes public health and safety seriously and has implemented aggressive policies to prevent the risk of infection for jurors and other court users.  All jurors will be required to wear facial coverings or masks.  We encourage you to bring your own mask with you to the courthouse.  Those who report for jury duty without a mask will be provided one by court staff for the duration of their trial.  Social distancing will be adhered to by all court participants and the courtroom and the courthouse will be sanitized daily.
