Colorado voters will decide whether to amend the state’s constitution to allow seven district court judges to move from one Front Range judicial district to a new neighboring jurisdiction in 2025.

Colorado voters this fall will decide whether to amend the state’s constitution to allow seven district court judges to move from one Front Range judicial district to a new neighboring jurisdiction in 2025.

“None of us who are sponsors of this measure take lightly what it means to amend our state constitution,” he said. “But this is in furtherance of a smooth transition for over a million people who live in some of Colorado’s most populous counties. This is not just about a certain number of judges, this is about continuity of our legal process.”

The Colorado Constitution says vacant judgeships must be filled through a process in which a local district nominating committee recommends candidates to the governor, who then appoints people as judges. Judges stand for retention in subsequent elections. Lawmakers cannot end judges’ terms early or reduce their pay, he said, so if the amendment fails to pass, it might create a situation in which the 18th Judicial District has too many judges and the new 23rd Judicial District doesn’t have enough, or new judges must be appointed in the 23rd Judicial District on top of the judges already serving in the 18th Judicial District, upping costs, he said.
