Quick answer
Colorado weekend bond hearing schedules vary by county. As of September 16, 2026, Adams lists Sunday at 10:30 a.m.; Arapahoe lists Saturday at 1:00 p.m.; Douglas lists Saturday at 2:00 p.m.; El Paso lists Saturday at 5:00 p.m. for weekend in-custody video advisement; Jefferson lists Saturday at 3:00 p.m.; Larimer lists Sunday at 9:30 a.m.; and Weld lists Saturday and Sunday at 9:00 a.m. Denver uses separate Saturday and Sunday windows based on the type of case.
A published schedule does not mean every person booked into a jail will automatically appear at that time, and it does not predict the court's decision. Case type, paperwork, jurisdiction, custody status, other holds, and court-specific requirements can affect what happens next. Always check the official court source before relying on a weekend time, especially around a holiday weekend.
Adams County weekend bond hearings
The Colorado Judicial Branch currently lists Adams County weekend in-custody bond hearings on Sundays at 10:30 a.m. The official 17th Judicial District page also publishes Webex and phone access information for the virtual courtroom.
If you are helping someone believed to be in Adams County custody, confirm the person's full name, holding facility, case information, listed bond status, and any other hold before assuming the Sunday hearing is the only step that matters.
Arapahoe County weekend bond hearings
Arapahoe County currently lists weekend bond hearings on Saturdays only at 1:00 p.m. The Colorado Judicial page also provides virtual courtroom access information for the 18th Judicial District.
Use the current court page before relying on a saved meeting link or an older third-party schedule. Court access information can change even when the ordinary hearing time remains the same.
Denver weekend bond hearings
Denver has the most detailed weekend schedule among the eight counties in this guide. Colorado Judicial states that Denver bond hearings are conducted by Denver County Court and currently lists weekend hearings on both Saturday and Sunday.
The current weekend schedule lists misdemeanors from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. in Courtroom 2100; felonies, other than the separately listed F1 matters, from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. in Courtroom 2300; F1 matters at 10:00 a.m.; and out-of-county matters at 10:00 a.m. in Courtroom 2300. Because Denver separates the schedule by case type, a single generic 'Denver bond court time' would be incomplete.
Douglas County weekend bond hearings
Douglas County currently publishes weekend bond hearings on Saturdays only at 2:00 p.m. The 23rd Judicial District also publishes a weekend bond court virtual courtroom.
Confirm that Douglas County is the correct holding and court jurisdiction before relying on the schedule. A nearby city name does not always tell you which county court process applies.
El Paso County weekend bond hearings
The 4th Judicial District currently lists El Paso County weekend in-custody video advisement on Saturday at 5:00 p.m. Mountain Time. Out-of-county warrants are listed separately at 4:00 p.m. Saturday.
The court uses the term video advisement for the weekend proceeding and provides virtual courtroom access information. Preserving the court's own terminology matters because not every weekend proceeding is labeled the same way across Colorado judicial districts.
Jefferson County weekend bond hearings
Jefferson County's regular weekend bond hearing schedule is currently Saturday at 3:00 p.m. The 1st Judicial District also publishes separate holiday-week rules.
If the court is closed for a holiday on a Friday, the current page says weekend bond hearings are held on the Saturday after the closure at 1:00 p.m. If the court is closed for a holiday on a Monday, the current page says weekend bond hearings are held on the Sunday before the closure at 1:00 p.m. Those holiday rules differ from the normal Saturday schedule.
Larimer County weekend bond hearings
Larimer County's normal published weekend bond hearing time is Sunday at 9:30 a.m. The Colorado Judicial Bond Hearing Office 3 page currently lists that same normal Sunday time.
Holiday weekends require an extra check. Bond Hearing Office 3 publishes a separate holiday schedule and currently lists Larimer at Sunday 11:30 a.m. for the holiday schedule. Do not carry the normal 9:30 a.m. time into a holiday weekend without rechecking the current official court page.
Weld County weekend bond hearings
Weld County currently lists weekend bond hearings on Saturday at 9:00 a.m. and Sunday at 9:00 a.m. The court separately lists out-of-county warrants on Sunday at 10:00 a.m.
The 19th Judicial District page also provides access to the bond hearing virtual courtroom. Use the official court source to verify the schedule and access information before the hearing.
Does a weekend hearing mean someone will be released that day?
Not necessarily. A scheduled weekend hearing tells you when the court currently handles the relevant proceeding. It does not tell you what decision the court will make or whether every release requirement will be completed that day.
The basic sequence remains: the court sets or reviews bond and conditions; a bond may be posted when authorized and applicable; and the detention facility handles release processing. Other cases, holds, court conditions, required paperwork, monitoring requirements, and facility processing can affect what happens next. A bail bond company does not set the bond, change court conditions, or control the jail's release timeline.
Can family members watch or join a hearing online?
Several of the official county pages publish Webex, virtual courtroom, or livestream information, but those options are not interchangeable. A livestream may allow someone to watch a proceeding, while a virtual courtroom link may be intended for authorized participants.
Watching a livestream is not a substitute for a required court appearance. Anyone required to appear should follow the instructions for the specific case and court. Use the official county court link instead of an old meeting code copied from a third-party page.
What to have ready before the weekend hearing
If you are helping someone who has been arrested, gather the information you can verify before making assumptions about what to do after that: the person's full legal name, the holding county and facility, booking or inmate information, the case number, current bond status when shown, the court or judicial district, and information about any additional hold or case.
Once the court has authorized a professional surety bond, the Mile High Bail Bonds team can explain what information is needed to begin the bonding process. If you are still trying to identify the correct facility, start with the Colorado inmate lookup resources on this site.
Why this schedule should be rechecked before a holiday weekend
Weekend court schedules are operational information and can change. Jefferson County publishes specific holiday rules, and Larimer's Bond Hearing Office 3 publishes a holiday schedule that differs from its normal weekend time.
