Colo. Rev. Stat. § 16-2-108 (2026).
Text
The place at which the summons
directs the defendant to appear shall be the place at which the court having
jurisdiction over the matter customarily sits. It shall be a location at which the
county court of the county in which the offense was alleged to have been
committed sits regularly unless otherwise provided by this section. If the summons
and complaint is issued by a peace officer and served personally upon the
defendant by such peace officer, it may direct appearance at a location in which the
county court of an adjoining county sits regularly if such a place is agreed to be
more convenient by both the peace officer and the defendant. Costs and fines, to
the extent provided by law, shall be retained by the county in which the matter is
heard.
