About visiting the probate court

About visiting the Baca County Court House

The term probate court is a common term loosely referring to the probate division located within a state or county courthouse. In the state of Colorado, the District Court is the level of court responsible for overseeing matters related to probate court.

Baca County Court House is listed as a registered probate court within Baca County, Colorado.

In most instances within Colorado, there is at least one District Court courthouse location within each county. Sometimes a county may have multiple courthouses and may also have multiple probate court locations. Such is often the case in larger metropolis counties where population is dense or also in spread-out, rural counties, which may use a courthouse annex or satellite office system to accommodate nearby citizens with easier access in proximity or distance.

About visiting the probate court

Who to speak with when visiting the Baca County probate court

Upon visiting the Baca County Court House, look for signs or directions to the probate division within the main courthouse. Once you’ve located the probate division, make your way to any reception desks and ask to speak with a probate clerk or probate judge. The probate clerk at Baca County Court House may or may not require appointments based upon the busyness of the probate court, so it’s a great idea to call ahead.

Plan ahead to be early in case available parking is limited and be prepared for formal security measures upon entering the building, as courthouses are official state and federal property. This generally includes passing through metal detectors and allowing search of any belongings.

Many courthouses do not allow cell phones, so keep that in mind as your phone may need to be turned off upon entering the courthouse, or even left outside.
Infographic reminder to bring cash, government issued ID, death certificate and relevant last will & testament documents when visiting probate court.

Totally unsecure voting system. The envelope has no flap, so paper is just wasted. The ballots and the envelopes with no closure just loosely mix in the box. How many ballots are lost this way? How much paper waste is generated by these faux envelopes? Who paid for it? Why were the choices so limited that it warns on the computer that prints your ballot that you have empty slots, but not that you can continue safely? What if we don't want to vote for that person, but still want to vote for president? Are we being coerced and forced to vote for only what they decide? That's a shame. What has our country come to? Our democratic way of life is being squandered by faulty voting facilities like Baca courthouse.

I can never get through to them when I call and because they aren't checking their voicemail you can't even leave a message so they can contact you back it's unprofessional and ridiculous as a court house..
