Colorado — Centennial
The appellate shield.
TrialVector is software — not a lawyer, not a law firm, and not a substitute for one. It provides legal information of a general nature, not legal advice; it prepares no documents for you in Colorado today; and it forms no attorney-client relationship.
The clock is at the boundary — say it before anything else
C.A.R. 4, the notice-of-appeal clock itself, is not printed in any loaded Rule Change order — 2024(11) carries 4.1, the interlocutory cousin, but not 4. The deadline that decides whether an appeal EXISTS must be read in the court's published rulebook. This platform will not guess it, compute it, or paraphrase it.
What the order stack DOES carry for appeals

Five orders, loaded whole — each printing the portions it amended, by the order-ledger posture.
The federal side is a whole book
The Tenth Circuit's combined 2026 FRAP + Circuit Rules book is loaded whole (Colorado is its first loader): FED-CA10 RULES — FRAP changes effective 2025-12-01, Circuit Rules changes effective 2026-01-01, by the court's own page.
