2021 Colorado Code|Title 16 - Criminal Proceedings|Article 10 - Jury Trials|Part 1 - Composition and Selection of the Jury|§ 16-10-106. Incapacity of Juror

 Where a jury of twelve has been sworn to try the case, and any juror by reason of illness or other cause becomes unable to continue until a verdict is reached, the court may excuse such juror. If no alternate juror is available to replace the juror, the parties at any time before verdict may stipulate in writing with court approval that the jury shall consist of any number less than twelve, and the jurors thus remaining shall proceed to try the case and determine the issues unless discharged by the court for inability to reach a verdict.   History. Source: L. 72: R&RE, p. 237, § 1. C.R.S. 1963: § 39-10-106 .    ANNOTATION   Number of challenges for cause not limited. There has been no limit set by statute or rule on the number of challenges for cause. People v. Fink, 41 Colo. App. 47, 579 P.2d 659 (1978).   Defense counsel stipulation to a jury of less than 12 in open court and on the record satisfies the statutory requirement that the stipulation must be in writing. People v. Baird, 66 P.3d 183 (Colo. App. 2002).   Juror properly dismissed and replaced. A juror, after being sequestered for eight days, was properly dismissed and replaced with an alternate when the juror was shown to be quite nervous and upset, and no evidence of prejudice against the defendant was shown by the dismissal and replacement of the juror.

 At the trial of any felony in which the prosecution is not seeking the death penalty, upon the request of the prosecution or the defendant, the court shall instruct the jury during voir dire that the prosecution is not seeking the death penalty.   History. Source: L. 89: Entire section added, p. 828, § 36, effective July 1.    ANNOTATION   Defendant's fundamental right to a fair trial for murder not impaired by court informing jury that the death penalty would not be an option without also explaining the applicable sentencing scheme where the death penalty is the only sentencing decision within the purview of the jury. People v. Smith, 848 P.2d 365 (Colo. 1993).   Jury instruction providing supplemental definition of “knowing” for the purposes of second degree murder was unnecessary, but was not reversible error. The trial court's instruction did not pose a barrier to the jury in considering fully the defendant's affirmative defense. People v. Baca, 852 P.2d 1302 (Colo. App. 1992).   Although this section does not address whether the court, on its own motion, may inform the jury that the death penalty is not involved in a case, the trial court did not abuse its discretion in denying the defendant's motion for a mistrial trial on the basis that the court made such statement. People v. Baca, 852 P.2d 1302 (Colo. App. 1992).   It was not error for the trial court to advise the prospective jurors at the outset of voir dire that, if defendant was convicted, death was a possible penalty. People v. Martinez, 24 P.3d 629 (Colo. App. 2000).

 Notwithstanding any sequestration order entered by the court that excludes members of the general public from a jury trial or a trial before the court, the court may allow a victim's advocate to remain in the courtroom during such trial. For the purposes of this section, “victim's advocate” means any person whose regular or volunteer duties include the support of an alleged victim of physical or sexual abuse or assault.   History.

 The court may, if it determines that the best interest of a child in a closed proceeding overrides the public interest in an open criminal proceeding and the defendant's right to a public trial, close the court to the public when images of sexually exploitative materials or forensic interviews directly related to said child are being presented as evidence in court and the child or the forensic interviewer is on the witness stand.

  In addition to any other penalty authorized by law, after a defendant has been convicted of or entered a plea of guilty or nolo contendere to a felony offense, or enters into a plea bargain agreement concerning a felony offense which is reduced to a misdemeanor pursuant to such agreement, the court may order such defendant to repay all or part of any reward paid by a crime stopper organization that led to the defendant's arrest and conviction. The amount of such repayment may not exceed the actual reward paid by any crime stopper organization and shall be used solely for paying rewards.      Upon an order to repay all or part of a crime stopper reward, the court shall assess such repayment against the defendant in the same manner as other costs of prosecution are assessed against a defendant. The court shall order the defendant to:   Pay the entire amount when sentence is pronounced; or    Pay the entire amount on such later date as may be specified by the court.       Any order for the repayment of all or part of a crime stopper reward shall be prioritized in accordance with the provisions of section 18-1.3-204 (2.5), C.R.S.       All moneys collected by the court pursuant to this section, together with transmittal information which includes the court's docket number, the defendant's name, and the crime stopper organization which is designated to receive the repayment of reward, shall be promptly forwarded to the division of criminal justice created by section 24-33.5-502, C.R.S. Upon receipt, the division of criminal justice shall promptly transmit the moneys to the state treasurer who shall deposit them in the crime stopper reward reimbursement fund which is hereby created. Moneys in the fund shall be continuously appropriated to the division of criminal justice for the purposes of this section. The disbursement of any such moneys to the designated crime stopper organization shall be made by the division of criminal justice within thirty-five days after the date of deposit in the crime stopper reward reimbursement fund.    As used in this section, “crime stopper organization” has the same meaning as provided in section 16-15.7-102 (1).      History. Source: L. 94: Entire section added, p. 1810, § 2, effective June 1.

     A defendant whose sentence was stayed pending appeal prior to July 1, 1972, but who was confined pending disposition of the appeal, is entitled to credit against the maximum and minimum terms of his sentence for the entire period of confinement served while the stay of execution was in effect.    A defendant whose sentence is stayed pending appeal after July 1, 1972, but who is confined pending disposition of the appeal, is entitled to credit against the term of his sentence for the entire period of such confinement, and this is so even though the defendant could have elected to commence serving his sentence before disposition of his appeal.       The sheriff or other officer having charge of the defendant during such confinement shall endorse the length of such confinement on the mittimus and deliver it to the prison authorities when the defendant is delivered for commitment.    The credit shall be computed by the prison authorities to the date of commitment. The computation shall be made as soon as practicable and the credit automatically awarded. The defendant shall be advised of the credit as soon as it is computed.     History. Source: L. 72: R&RE, p. 249, § 1. C.R.S. 1963: § 39-11-307 . L. 73: P. 507, § 1.

ANNOTATION   Defendant who is released on an appeal bond under conditions that do not so limit the defendant's liberty as to constitute “confinement” is not entitled to credit against a sentence for the period spent pending disposition of an appeal. “Confinement” in this section is subject to the same interpretation as used in § 16-11-306 . Thus, where the defendant was released on an appeal bond and, like an offender in community corrections on non-residential status, she was able to carry on a wide range of activities open to persons who have never been convicted of any crime, such as obtaining employment, going to school, and being with her family and friends, the defendant was not entitled to credit against her sentence for the time spent released on appeal bond.

 The general assembly finds and declares that, based upon the findings and recommendations of the 1999 interim committee to study the treatment of persons with mental illness in the Colorado criminal justice system, detecting behavioral or mental health disorders in persons in the criminal justice system is a difficult process with no current statewide standards or requirements. The lack of a standardized screening process to detect persons with behavioral or mental health disorders in the criminal justice system is a significant impediment to consistent identification, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of all offenders with behavioral or mental health disorders, ultimately resulting in an increased rate of recidivism. Therefore, the general assembly resolves to create a standardized screening process to be utilized at each stage of the criminal justice system to identify persons with behavioral or mental health disorders.
