Pueblo County Clerk of Court Office
The Clerk of Court at Pueblo Combined Court serves the Colorado Judicial Branch, not Pueblo County's elected recording office. This state court clerk manages case filings, docket access, court copies, certified court records, and record/document requests for Pueblo District Court and Pueblo County Court. The Combined Court is at 501 N. Elizabeth Street, Pueblo, CO 81003. The court phone is 719-404-8700. Building hours are listed as 7:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday, while customer service and records hours are 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
That distinction matters. Marriage licenses, real estate recordings, county board minutes, and permanent county records go to the Pueblo County Clerk and Recorder. Felony, civil, domestic relations, probate, juvenile, misdemeanor, traffic, eviction, and protection-order case records go through the court clerk or state court systems. A copy request for a divorce decree, probate order, criminal disposition, or civil judgment should be routed through the Clerk of Court.

Pueblo County Court Record Duties
The Clerk of Court supports the Pueblo Combined Court's state case record system. The research identifies the office as the keeper for court case records, dockets, transcripts, filings, copies, certified court records, and the Colorado Judicial record/document request process. Pueblo County is the 10th Judicial District, and the Combined Court houses both District Court and County Court functions.
- Maintain District Court and County Court case files and docket records.
- Process court record and document requests through Colorado Judicial channels.
- Provide copies and certified court records when public access rules allow release.
- Support transcript contacts and court forms listed by the Colorado Judicial Branch.
- Apply access limits for suppressed, sealed, juvenile, probate, protected, or confidential documents.
The Colorado Judicial record/document request form is the main online request channel for court copies and certified documents when a docket or case search does not provide the needed document.
Online docket results should be treated as a locator tool. They can show hearing schedule data, but they do not prove that a user has the document needed for filing, licensing, benefits, travel, employment compliance, or another official purpose. When an official record is required, ask the Pueblo Combined Court Clerk of Court for the specific certified document, such as a decree, disposition, judgment, order, letters, or docket register.
Request Pueblo County Certified Copies
Certified court copies are used when an agency, employer, licensing board, school, passport office, benefits office, or another court needs proof that a court record is official. Common Pueblo County requests include divorce decrees, criminal dispositions, civil judgments, probate letters or orders, traffic dispositions, and protection-order documents. A plain docket printout may not be enough for those uses.
- Find the case number if possible through the docket search, CoCourts, old paperwork, or party records.
- Open the Colorado Judicial record/document request form and enter requester contact information.
- Select the case type, filing year if known, and Pueblo County as the location of the records.
- Describe the document needed and state whether certification is required.
- Watch for the court response. The request notice says responses are generally provided within three business days unless extenuating circumstances exist.
If the record is sealed, suppressed, juvenile, probate, or confidential, the court may require a U.S. government-issued photo ID or deny access where law, court rule, order, or public interest requires it.
For the best response, avoid a vague request for all records. Name the document and case type if possible. A request for a certified divorce decree, criminal disposition, probate letters, traffic disposition, or civil judgment gives the Clerk of Court a clearer target than a broad name-only request. The court form also allows a filing year, which helps when the case number is not known.
Pueblo County Request Form Fields
The court record request form asks for enough information to identify the requester, the case, and the court location. The most important local selection is Pueblo County in the county/location field. A case number helps, but the form also accepts a filing year and case type when the number is not known.
| Field | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Requester name, email, phone | Unspecified | Used by the court to respond to the request. |
| Address line 1, state, city, ZIP | Yes | Requester mailing address fields are marked required in the inventory. |
| Case number | Optional | Example format shown by the form is 2019T999999. |
| Case type | Dropdown | Includes Civil, Divorce, Felony, Juvenile, Misdemeanor, Probate, Protection Order, Small Claims, Traffic, and Water. |
| Year case was filed | Optional | The visible list ran from 2026 back to 1873. |
| County/location of records | Required | Select Pueblo County for Pueblo Combined Court records. |
Pueblo County Court Fees
The research provides state filing fees and county recording fees, but it does not list a complete Pueblo Combined Court copy-price table for every court document. Court filing fees come from the Colorado Judicial Branch. County recording and marriage copy fees belong to the County Clerk and Recorder and should not be treated as court clerk fees.
| Court item | Amount or rule |
|---|---|
| Petition for divorce, separation, annulment, or declaratory judgment | $260 |
| Response in divorce, separation, annulment, or declaratory judgment | $146 |
| Motion to modify decree or final order after 60 days | $105 |
| First probate filing for estate, guardianship/conservatorship, personal injury settlement, or transfer petition | $229 |
| Small estate probate filing | $113 |
| Jury demand fee in probate schedule | $231 |
Note: For certified copy pricing, submit the record request or contact the Clerk of Court, because the researched sources did not publish a full local copy-fee table.
Pueblo County Clerk Split
Pueblo County uses a split clerk structure. The Clerk of Court works under the Colorado Judicial Branch and handles court case records. The Pueblo County Clerk and Recorder is a separate elected county office that manages recording, motor vehicle, elections, marriage and civil union licenses, BOCC records, and permanent county records. Users looking for deeds, plats, surveys, military records, county board resolutions, or marriage certificates should use the Pueblo County Clerk and Recorder instead.
The Clerk and Recorder pages were assigned to the clerk image set in the manifest, and they are useful here only to show the split-clerk issue. The county office's Clerk and Recorder home page describes recording, elections, motor vehicle, and permanent records rather than court case files.
This distinction prevents a court-record request from being sent to the recording office and a marriage-copy request from being sent to the court clerk.
The county Recording Department page is another assigned image source.
Recording contact details help separate land and marriage records from Pueblo County court records.
The county records search landing page is for Clerk and Recorder records.
That county search channel should not be used as the main route for divorce decrees, criminal dispositions, probate orders, or other court case documents.
The split also affects public-records law. A CORA request may be useful for county administrative records, but court case records follow Colorado Judicial Branch access rules, including Chief Justice Directive 05-01 and court record restrictions. Criminal justice records from the Sheriff or District Attorney follow a different criminal justice records path. Sending every request to one office can slow the result because each custodian can only release records it controls.
The manifest also includes the City of Pueblo mobile apps page, which is useful only as a contrast point for court-record users.
City apps do not replace the Clerk of Court, the state docket search, or the Colorado Judicial record request form for Pueblo County court records.
The official iOS app listing for the City of Pueblo is another assigned source, but it is not a Clerk of Court search system.
Use the iOS app for city information only where relevant, not for certified court copies or District Court case records.
The Android listing for the official City of Pueblo app carries the same limit for Pueblo County Clerk of Court users.
Certified court records still come through the Pueblo Combined Court records department or Colorado Judicial request channels.
Transcript questions also belong with the court system, not the County Clerk and Recorder. The Colorado Judicial Pueblo County page includes transcript contact resources along with forms, local court notices, and the Pueblo Combined Court location. That makes the Clerk of Court page the better starting point when a user needs a hearing record, docketed court document, or certified case copy.
