The dogs are aggressive and chase me and my dog who is on a leash beside me. I’m afraid to leave my apt. What do I do?
Yes. Service animals are required to be under the owner’s control at all times. So the dog cannot chase and attack you and be exempt from the law. Such behavior could fall under Colorado’s dangerous dog statute. If you are being chased or attacked by any dog, regardless of designation, you can... Read more »
I'm not sure what difference the death certificate makes. In Colorado, the Personal Representative controls disposition of the decedent's assets. The Personal Representative is appointed by the probate court. It usually is whomever is named as PR by the will. If no will, then the PR is... Read more »
My son is incarcerated in Texas, but his home state is Colorado. I would like to know where to find the information I need to possibly get him traded back here to Colorado where his family is.
That is strictly a matter for the Colorado Department of Correction and the Texas Department of Corrections. However that does not mean you have hit a brick wall. Call Colorado DOC's main number and asked to speak to the person in charge of inmate relocation. You may hit a brick wall at that... Read more »
I was involved in an armed gas station robbery in 2019. DA called me Feb. of this year and admitted they were sending everything to the wrong person with my same name despite having my police report and information. They said the lead investigator would call me in March. Never did. I finally called... Read more »
If you have not been personally served with a subpoena you have no legal obligation to appear. However, I assume you are important witness since, as you say, you were "involved in an armed gas station robbery." Unless you were a participant, you might want to give some thought to... Read more »
I wasnt tailgating Or even speeding when i ran into the back end of another vehical, and the video shows this .
You might be able to do so, however, the fact of the collision does not help your defense. My recommendation is to contact a traffic ticket/criminal defense lawyer in your area, and when you meet with them, bring the video and discuss your options at that time.
Permanent order of 50/50 and he is now trying to go back to the permanent order without letting me know his progress with his mental health will the judge find me in contempt? He did file a contempt against me. I have filed to modify the order to 70/30 and he filed a contempt once he received the... Read more »
You are obligated to follow the existing order unless and until it is changed. There are not enough facts here to predict whether there are grounds for anyone to be found in contempt. As far as letting you know of progress with his mental health treatment, it depends on whether the current order... Read more »
At my job, FOH employees are paid tipped minimum wage- $9.30. FOH employees receive tips, which are pooled and also shared with management and BOH employees, of which both groups receive at least minimum wage or higher. I read a passage on the Colorado department of labor website stating that... Read more »
Tip credit and tip pooling are two different things. A tip credit is when an employer pays you less than the minimum wage ($4.25 per hour for instance) and gets a credit from the tips you receive to count toward its obligation to pay minimum wage ($9.00 per hour for example).
The DOL... Read more »
I have a Nevada LLC and I want to move it to Colorado where I now live. I want to preserve the company history, EIN, etc. so not start a new LLC but just migrate it to a new state. What's the best way to do this? I heard creating a new LLC in Colorado and merging the Nevada one into it, but... Read more »
Yes.
You can create a new CO LLC and have that LLC acquire the NV LLC. Then merge the two with the CO LLC surviving.
Or
File a foreign registration in CO for the NV LLC. Then convert the CO foreign LLC to a domestic LLC.
Dissolve the NV LLC.
That moves... Read more »

I am my sons primary parent, I have him all week and his mother has him on the weekends. Also we have never gone to court for custody. She has just never really been in his life fully
If there is no allocation of decision-making responsibility then either parent can make a medical decision for the child.
The flood unit is coming by tomorrow to assess. I asked if it was safe, they said no, not ideal. No offers to put me up in a hotel or another apartment. I've been sick for well over a month with extensive lung and throat damage. No idea on how long it has been leaking but there was no water... Read more »
A Colorado attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. As a general matter nationwide, mold cases can be difficult and some law firms do not like to handle them. The injuries and damages tend to be less clear cut than in other forms of injury cases. In terms of your... Read more »
Of state and the baby is born in MO, can he legally get custody if child is established in MO?
I am sorry to hear about your situation. He can petition for custody regardless of where the child is. That does not mean that his request will be granted. Courts consider the best interests of the child legal standard when deciding custody matters.
I bought an electric Mtn-bike:
I attempted to return the bike within the allotted time (30-days), but the E-bike company kept avoiding my request and offered to send me out more brake pads.
Return Policy:
The Ebike X-Treme return policy is clear. After you used the bike it... Read more »
A Colorado attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. I hope your son is okay. In terms of your question, no one could answer that based on these facts alone. One would need more information in terms of why the bike couldn't stop, among other issues.... Read more »

Unfortunately, this happens a lot. Especially if the accuser is in an intimate relationship with the accused person and the allegations involve domestic violence. A case like this, with a significant lack of evidence, is very defensible. Consult with an attorney ASAP to assess your best options.
It depends on whether there is a court order or not. If there is a parenting time order, each parent's time is governed by that and law enforcement will enforce the terms of the order. If there is not an order, the matter may be one of parental kidnapping, however law enforcement may view it... Read more »

If you are unmarried and filing separate tax returns, the stimulus check is based on each person' prior income and is not specifically intended to go to children so each party would keep his or her own. As for the extra child tax credit, it depends on what your agreement says. However... Read more »
Child Support Enforcement here keeps asking me for his address and employer.
Child support enforcement has location methods. You could also have a skip trace done privately to attempt to locate him. They possibly could do the same.
If he was the personal representative of the will, he could. Particularly if your father indicated that cremation was his wish.
It depends on what type of statement and how you retract it. If you say that you made a false official statement, then you could subject yourself to false reporting consequences.
