“Can domestic violence charges be defended in Colorado?”

Answer: Yes. Domestic violence charges can be defended through various legal strategies including self-defense claims, challenging witness credibility, demonstrating false allegations, and presenting character evidence. Former prosecutor Alexis Austin Litle has specific expertise in domestic violence defense. However, every case is different and outcomes depend on specific facts and evidence.

Colorado Law Note: Domestic violence in Colorado functions as a sentencing enhancement to underlying charges (CRS 18-6-800.3), not as a standalone offense. Mandatory protection orders are automatically issued.

IMPORTANT COLORADO CRIMINAL LAW UPDATES (2025)

Recent Changes Affecting Defense Strategy

Proposition 128 (Effective 2025):
Defendants convicted of violent felonies must now serve at least 85% of their sentence before parole eligibility (increased from 75%). This significantly affects plea negotiations and sentencing strategy for violent crime cases.

Habitual Criminal Framework Updates (March 2025):
Colorado Senate amended habitual offender proceedings to strengthen due process protections and address double jeopardy concerns. New procedural safeguards apply before habitual offender designation.

Amendment I (2025):
Restored judicial authority to deny bail in first-degree murder cases, reintroducing discretion that was removed after death penalty repeal.

Domestic Violence Law:
Domestic violence continues to function as a sentencing enhancement (CRS 18-6-800.3) rather than standalone charge. Mandatory arrest policies remain in effect. Fourth DV conviction results in Class 5 felony habitual offender status (CRS 18-6-801(7)).

DMV Hearing Deadline:
7-day deadline for requesting DMV hearing after DUI arrest remains strictly enforced. Missing this deadline results in automatic license suspension.
