New Legislation Regarding Automatic Sealing of Criminal Cases

ORDER TO SEAL AUTOMATICALLY

Colorado lawmakers passed a new law that requires courts to automatically seal certain eligible criminal conviction cases after a waiting period.  “Sealing a case" means making it inaccessible to the general public. This can include minor offenses where you received a ticket, had a court date, or completed a plea agreement, sometimes without even going to court.  If you received an Order To Seal Automatically, this was automatically generated when a case you were involved in was sealed.

Sealed records are not available to the public.  Court staff cannot give you specific information or verify the details of a sealed case.  If your case was sealed and you want more information, you can submit a record request form (08RecordRequest@judicial.state.co.us ) to the court to ask for information or documents. The court must receive proper identification before discussing or providing documents for a sealed case. If you receive a document saying your case is sealed, keep it for your records. You don't need to do anything else with the court.
