Background

The public order identifies C.O. as the petitioner and the People of the State of Colorado as the respondent. It also includes the caption “In the Interest of K.C., and Concerning C.C.” The matter came to the Supreme Court of Colorado from Court of Appeals Case No. 26CA485.

The Supreme Court proceeding was docketed as No. 26SC621. The order states that the court sat en banc and was issued on November 2, 2026. Beyond the parties, caption, docket numbers, and certiorari posture, the public text supplies no factual background or description of the issues presented.

The Court’s Holding

The order states in full: “Petition for Writ of Certiorari DENIED.” The Supreme Court of Colorado therefore denied C.O.’s petition for a writ of certiorari.

No opinion, explanation, or statement of reasons accompanies the denial in the supplied public text. The order does not identify the questions presented, discuss the Court of Appeals’ reasoning, or announce a legal rule.

Key Takeaways

  • The Supreme Court of Colorado, sitting en banc, denied the petition for a writ of certiorari in No. 26SC621.
  • The order identifies Court of Appeals Case No. 26CA485 as the related lower-court proceeding.
  • The public order provides only the disposition and does not disclose the court’s reasoning.

Why It Matters

This Disposition notice records the only action stated in the public order: denial of certiorari. Because no reasoning is publicly supplied, the order should not be described as resolving particular legal issues, adopting a rationale, or making findings about the underlying proceeding.
