CO Justice vs. CBI
CBI receives primarily arrest record information which often does not include the disposition. Arrest records without the final disposition details diminishes the quality of information available from CBI and may limit the use of the information such as with employment decisions. Individuals are typically not arrested for civil, domestic and small claims cases and therefore these are not included with CBI results. One search with CoJustice can cover all Colorado counties including Denver County and can include criminal, civil, domestic, small claims and traffic court cases.

Acquittal
The judgment of a court, based on the verdict of a jury or a judicial officer, that the defendant is not guilty of the offense(s) for which he or she has been tried.
This is a type of defendant disposition (see entry) which, when the acquittal is on all charges in the case, terminates criminal justice jurisdiction over the defendant. In statistics describing judicial activity it is a final court disposition.
