Background
Center for Excellence in Higher Education and related colleges, entities, and individuals petitioned the Colorado Supreme Court for a writ of certiorari in litigation against the State of Colorado, Attorney General Philip J. Weiser, and Uniform Consumer Credit Code Administrator Martha Fulford.
The petition sought review of proceedings identified as Colorado Court of Appeals Case No. 20CA1692. The Supreme Court’s order does not describe the underlying facts, claims, or Court of Appeals ruling.
The Court’s Holding
The Colorado Supreme Court denied the petition for a writ of certiorari.
The order contains no ruling on the merits and provides no reasoning for the denial. Justice Berkenkotter did not participate.
Key Takeaways
- The court declined to review Court of Appeals Case No. 20CA1692.
- The denial of certiorari does not announce a merits holding or endorse the lower court’s reasoning.
- Justice Berkenkotter did not participate in the decision.
Why It Matters
The denial ends this attempt to obtain Colorado Supreme Court review and leaves the Court of Appeals disposition undisturbed. Because the order supplies no substantive analysis, it creates no new guidance on the underlying legal issues.
