Final Passage·5/7/26

Colorado HB1343 expands electronic processes in competency and administrative hearings for criminal defendants.

Colorado HB1343 modifies state statutes to enhance the use of electronic processes in competency evaluations and administrative hearings for criminal defendants. The bill mandates that competency evaluations be submitted to the court electronically, including through an e-filing system. It also allows agencies to serve notice of hearings and decisions electronically, upon documented request or consent. Additionally, the bill requires the department to electronically deliver evaluation reports to the court clerk, who then distributes them to relevant parties using an e-filing system.
