How to get records from the Colorado State Patrol

The Colorado State Patrol (Statewide) is a Colorado state agency. Most of its records, including incident reports, crash reports, body cam video, and dispatch records, are criminal justice records under the Colorado Criminal Justice Records Act (CCJRA, C.R.S. 24-72-301 et seq.). Administrative records, like policies, budgets, and emails, fall under CORA.

Options

• Do it yourself: use the Colorado State Patrol's official records request portal or form. Check the agency's website for its current process and fee schedule.
• Have us do it: we draft, file, track, and deliver for a flat fee: $150 Standard or $300 Complex, plus agency fees at cost.
