Court Text Reminder Program

The 20th Judicial District is part of the Statewide text message reminder program that is in compliance with C.R.S. § 13-3-1021(14).

All participants are automatically opted into the program and will receive a text message reminder on their mobile device reminding them of:

  • Upcoming court dates
  • Missed court dates
  • Unplanned court closures

To sign up, complete the JDF 18 form. (internal link needed) A JDF 18 must be filled out for each court case you would like to receive text reminders for.

Mail the completed JDF 18 to:

20th Judicial District
