C.R.S. Section 15-10-505
Notice to fiduciary

  • current address on file

(1)

In all actions undertaken pursuant to this part 5, the following provisions shall govern notice to fiduciaries:

(a)

In emergency situations.
If it appears to a court that an emergency exists because there is an imminent risk of substantial harm to a ward’s or protected person’s health, safety, or welfare or to the financial interests of an estate, the court may take appropriate action and issue an order with or without prior notice to a fiduciary as the court determines appropriate based upon the nature of the emergency. If a fiduciary of an estate is not present when an emergency order is entered concerning the administration of the estate, the court shall attempt to notify the fiduciary of the court’s action and mail a copy of the court’s order to the fiduciary at the fiduciary’s last address of record on file with the court. Notice of the court’s order shall also be served, pursuant to section 15-10-401, upon all interested persons or as the court directs. Notice of all hearings set under section 15-10-503 (1) shall be given pursuant to section 15-10-401.

(b)

In nonemergency situations.
In nonemergency situations, notice to a fiduciary shall be governed by section 15-10-401.

(c)

Contempt.
For a hearing to determine possible contempt of a fiduciary, the court shall provide notice to the fiduciary as required by rule 107 of the Colorado rules of civil procedure.

(2)

Fiduciary’s responsibility to keep current address in court file.
Every fiduciary appointed by a court is required to keep his, her, or its current address and telephone number on file with the court. The fiduciary shall promptly notify the court of any change in the fiduciary’s address or telephone number.
