I am a victim in a criminal case and a No Contact Order or mandatory criminal protection order has been issued in my case. How do I request that it be lifted or changed?
Victim Specialists provide clinics three times per week, during which you can complete the paperwork to make a request to modify or lift no contact conditions of bond, criminal protection orders or sentence. Clinics are held on Mondays at 1 p.m. and Wednesdays at 9 a.m. at the Justice Center on 6th and Canyon in Boulder and on Fridays at 10 a.m. at the Longmont branch of the DAs Office on 10th and Kimbark. It is important to note that the judge on the case determines whether or not to make any changes or lift the no contact order. The DA will take a position on your request, but the judge makes the final decision. It will take at least 7-10 business days to receive the judges ruling regarding your request. Until you have been notified of a ruling on your request that indicates there was a change to the no contact orders, all orders remain in effect.
