Weld County · 19th Judicial District · Rules v2026.3, current through July 1, 2026
Seal a record in Weld County, Colorado
If your case was handled in Weld County, the motion to seal goes back to the same court, under the same case number — the Weld County Centennial Center, at 915 10th St., Greeley, CO 80631, in the 19th Judicial District.
The law is the same in all 64 counties. What changes locally is where you file, and how a particular clerk's office wants the paperwork.

Where you file
- Judicial district
- 19th Judicial District
- Which court
- County court cases and district court cases are both heard at this courthouse. Your case number says which one yours was; file in that division.
- Municipal cases
- A city ticket handled in a municipal court is sealed in that municipal court, not here. The forms and the statute differ.
What it costs here
- $65 processing fee on a motion to seal a conviction, paid to the Weld County clerk of court, not to us. The court waives it if it finds you cannot pay. Nothing at all on a non-conviction, and $224 on an arrest that never became a charge, because that one opens a new case.
- $6 for your own criminal history from the Colorado Bureau of Investigation. Get this first.
- A fee waiver is available from the clerk if you cannot pay.
- Nothing else is owed to any court in this process.
Whether you qualify yet
Eligibility is state law, not county practice. C.R.S. § 24-72-706 sets the waiting periods, the exclusions and the intervening-conviction rules, and they read the same in Greeley as anywhere else in Colorado.
The Check below reads that statute against your own dates and gives you a dated answer, free, without asking who you are.
Common questions
Do I have to go to the Weld County Centennial Center in person?
Usually not in person. Colorado allows remote appearances for sealing matters, and many motions are granted with no hearing at all when the district attorney does not object.
I moved away from Weld County. Where do I file?
Still in Weld County. The motion goes to the court that entered the judgment, whatever state you live in now.
Unburdened is not a law firm. This is legal information, not legal advice.
