Denver, Colorado (39.7392° N, 104.9903° W), the state capital and a bustling metropolitan hub, lies at the base of the Rocky Mountains.
Premises liability cases in Denver are governed by the Colorado Premises Liability Act (CPLA), codified at Colo. Rev. Stat. § 13-21-115. This statute outlines the duties landowners owe to individuals on their property, categorizing them as invitees, licensees, or trespassers, each owed varying levels of care. Notably, the Colorado Supreme Court has clarified that the CPLA is the exclusive remedy for injuries occurring on another’s property, superseding common law doctrines such as the “open and obvious danger” defense. This means landowners cannot rely on such defenses to avoid liability under the statute.
In Denver, premises liability claims are typically filed in the Denver County Court or the Denver District Court, depending on the severity and specifics of the case. The Denver District Court, as part of Colorado’s 2nd Judicial District, has general jurisdiction over civil cases, including those involving premises liability.
It’s important to note that the statute of limitations for premises liability claims in Colorado is two years from the date of injury. Failing to file within this period may result in the loss of the right to seek compensation.
