About Colorado County Bench Warrants

Each Colorado county operates under a specific judicial district. County courts issue bench warrants for failure to appear, probation violations, and unpaid fines. Sheriff's Offices execute these warrants. Some counties offer online warrant searches. Others require phone calls or in-person visits.

The largest counties by population include El Paso, Denver, Arapahoe, Jefferson, and Adams. These counties handle the highest volume of bench warrants. They often provide the most robust online resources for warrant searches.

Colorado is divided into 23 judicial districts. Each district serves multiple counties. The district courts work with county courts to process criminal cases. Bench warrants can be issued by either court level depending on the case type.

For any county, you can use statewide resources to search for warrants. CoCourts.com provides paid access to court records across all 64 counties. The Colorado Judicial Branch Docket Search is free but may have limited warrant status information.

If you discover you have an active bench warrant, take action immediately. Contact the court that issued the warrant. Speak with the Sheriff's Office. Consider consulting an attorney. Voluntary surrender is often the safest approach. It shows responsibility and may lead to better outcomes.
