Colorado’s District Courts are separated into 22 judicial districts. Each district includes one or more counties. These courts are the state’s general jurisdiction courts. These courts have original jurisdiction in many types of civil cases, felony criminal cases, family law, domestic relations cases, and cases involving children such as juvenile delinquency, adoption, dependency, paternity, and guardianship.
Along with these types of cases, these courts are also responsible for probate and mental health matters. Typically, these courts hold trials in the county where the motion was filed. On average, they resolve about 200,000 cases every year.
Colorado’s County Courts are the limited jurisdiction courts for the state. Each of the 64 counties has one of these courts. The city-counties of Denver and Broomfield are consolidated to have one. The types of cases resolved in County Courts are misdemeanors, landlord disputes, and evictions, real property cases with amounts of up to $25,000 and other very specific types of cases such as name changes and temporary restraining orders. On average, these courts hear about 400,000 cases per year. Of that total, about 170,000 are civil cases, and 80,000 are criminal cases.
This state has seven Water Courts that have exclusive and specific jurisdiction over adjudications of water rights. These courts were created in 1969 for each of Colorado’s seven major river basins:
South Platte, Arkansas, Rio Grande, Gunnison, Colorado, White, and San Juan. District judges with special “drainage basin” authority preside over Water Courts. Technically, Water Courts are a separate division of these courts and share its resources but are treated as their own entity. The Colorado Supreme Court selects and appointees judges to Water Court. On average, Water Courts see about 880 filings per year along with 4,500 claims.
