Colorado Counties
Sixty-four counties. Twenty-three districts. Zero guesses.
County and district practice are real law in Colorado — Chief Justice Directives, local rules and standing orders, per-district case-management habits, and Denver running a three-court structure unique in the state. Pages appear here as each county is clerk-proven, never before.
The structural map (kit-verified · re-checked on the Judicial Branch's own listing)
Sixty-four counties in twenty-three judicial districts (the audited kit's map, node-verified 64/64 unique and re-checked against the Judicial Branch's own listing): 1st (Gilpin · Jefferson) · 2nd (Denver — THE THREE-COURT CITY-AND-COUNTY: Denver District Court hears dissolution merits, with separate Denver Juvenile and Denver Probate courts unique in the state) · 3rd (Huerfano · Las Animas) · 4th (El Paso · Teller) · 5th (Clear Creek · Eagle · Lake · Summit) · 6th (Archuleta · La Plata · San Juan) · 7th (Delta · Gunnison · Hinsdale · Montrose · Ouray · San Miguel) · 8th (Jackson · Larimer) · 9th (Garfield · Pitkin · Rio Blanco) · 10th (Pueblo) · 11th (Chaffee · Custer · Fremont · Park) · 12th (Alamosa · Conejos · Costilla · Mineral · Rio Grande · Saguache) · 13th (Kit Carson · Logan · Morgan · Phillips · Sedgwick · Washington · Yuma) · 14th (Grand · Moffat · Routt) · 15th (Baca · Cheyenne · Kiowa · Prowers) · 16th (Bent · Crowley · Otero) · 17th (Adams · Broomfield) · 18th (Arapahoe — alone since the split) · 19th (Weld) · 20th (Boulder) · 21st (Mesa) · 22nd (Dolores · Montezuma) · 23rd (Douglas · Elbert · Lincoln — the state's newest district, split from the 18th). Family merits are DISTRICT-COURT practice (§ 14-10-106(1)(a): the district court enters the decree); county courts share the civil protection-order lane but never dissolution merits, and the 273 municipal courts are a bounded DV/enforcement crossover layer only.
The local-law reality
Colorado's local layer is load-bearing and layered: Chief Justice Directives (a DIRECTIVE authority level this corpus already carries — CJD 04-08 is stored), district-level local rules and standing orders, per-district case-management habits around the C.R.C.P. 16.2 machinery (initial-status-conference setting, sworn-financial-statement handling, informal domestic relations trial availability), and DENVER-ONLY forms the statewide JDF walk did not surface (the kit's K9 doctrine: a Denver form is never promoted statewide, and none ship here until clerk-proven). Family court facilitators and Sherlocks vary by district. Where nothing is published, the honest terminal state is a DOCUMENTED no-published-material review (the audited kit's 60-lane rubric), never an assumption — exactly what BenchPath exists to verify, clerk-proven, county by county.
0 of 64 counties — the honest zero-state
BenchPath has not ingested Colorado county procedure yet, so no county pages exist — pages appear county-by-county as verified data comes online, never before. The district court clerk, the family court facilitators, and the self-represented litigant coordinators (Sherlocks) are the sources in the meantime.
Until your county appears here: the district court clerk, the Judicial Branch's Self-Help Forms site, the Family Court Facilitators, and the Sherlocks are the doors — courts-run, all of them. Legal information, not legal advice.
