View this case - free  

Overview: Amended Colo. Rev. Stat. ? 24-10-103(5.5) (2003) applied prospectively where neither the language of the statute, its legislative history, nor the definition of the term in use prior to the legislation's adoption supported the municipalities' contention that the General Assembly clearly intended the amendments to be retroactive.

Stat. ? 16-3-309 (2006) to a defense request to allow videotaping of consumptive DNA testing, a court abused its discretion when it committed to ordering suppression of the test results that had not yet been conducted if the agency refused to permit videotaping and the prosecution refused to pay a defense expert's expense.
