Colorado - Session 2026
Title: Remove Exception to Marry with Judicial Approval
Current law requires an individual to be at least 18 years old in order to obtain a marriage license; except that a minor who is 16 or 17 years old may obtain a marriage license with judicial approval. The bill repeals this exception, therefore requiring that an individual be at least 18 years old to obtain a marriage license. (Note: This summary applies to this bill as introduced.)
