Deregistration questions and the free chart I use to help people understand when they are eligible for deregistration as a sexual offender. (as of 2020 in Colorado). Please use it as the reference tool

Appendix-C

DEREGISTRATION AFTER FINAL JURISDICTION OF THE COURT

The General Rule of thumb is you have to wait until you are released from the final jurisdiction of the Court. What is final jurisdiction? Typically that means:

  1. discharge from incarceration;
  2. discharge from commitment to the Department of Human Services;
  3. final release from the jurisdiction of the court (the Court closes your case as finished probation typically)
deregistration off the sex offender list
