Court Record Contacts
Rio Blanco County criminal cases are handled through Colorado Judicial Branch resources for the county and the 9th Judicial District. Use the official docket search for hearing schedules and the Judicial Branch record/document request form for court-file copies. The Sheriff's Office is not the official custodian for court pleadings, orders, or filed charges once a criminal case is opened.
