Reduced hours. Courthouse procedures. Where to find the information you need.

The strain of shelter-in-place orders has taken its toll on many fragile relationships. If you find yourself facing divorce during these strange and difficult times, you need guidance on how to proceed. Colorado courthouses have re-opened, but many are operating at reduced capacity. This means shorter hours, fewer clerks in the building and modified procedures that seem to change weekly.
