CO Code § 13-71-142 (2021)
2021 Colorado Code|Title 13 - Courts and Court Procedure|Article 71 - Colorado Uniform Jury Selection and Service Act|§ 13-71-142. Alternate Jurors

 In all civil and criminal trials, the court may call and impanel alternate jurors to replace jurors who are disqualified or who the court may determine are unable to perform their duties prior to deliberation. Alternate jurors shall be summoned in the same manner, have the same qualifications, be subject to the same examination and challenges, take the same oath, and have the same functions, powers, and privileges as regular jurors. An alternate juror who does not replace a regular juror shall be discharged at the time the jury retires to consider its verdict, unless otherwise provided by law, by agreement of the parties, or by order of the court. The seating of an alternate juror entitles each party to an additional peremptory challenge, which may be exercised as to any prospective jurors.   History.

L. 91: Entire section amended, p. 428, § 2, effective May 24.    ANNOTATION   The purpose of seating an alternate juror is to have available another juror when, through unforeseen circumstances, a juror is unable to continue to serve. People v. Abbott, 690 P.2d 1263 (Colo. 1984); Hardesty v. Pino, 222 P.3d 336 (Colo. App. 2009).   A trial court is in the best position to evaluate whether a juror is unable to serve, and its decision to excuse a juror will not be disturbed absent a gross abuse of discretion. People v. Abbott, 690 P.2d 1263 (Colo. 1984); Hardesty v. Pino, 222 P.3d 336 (Colo. App. 2009).   A trial court is not required to conduct a more thorough investigation to make a factual determination regarding an absent juror's physical inability to continue. Hardesty v. Pino, 222 P.3d 336 (Colo. App. 2009).   Where some unforeseen circumstance unrelated to the merits of a case hampers a juror's continued ability to sit, replacing a juror with an alternate is in the nature of an administrative task. People v. Anderson, 183 P.3d 649 (Colo. App. 2007); Hardesty v. Pino, 222 P.3d 336 (Colo. App. 2009).   No error when court did not specifically instruct reconstituted jury that it must restart jury deliberation, completely disregarding the deliberations involving the replaced juror. Springs v. Perry, 8 P.3d 517 (Colo. App. 2000).

 In all civil cases if any expenses are incurred in furnishing meals or provisions to jurors impaneled to try such causes, such expenses shall be taxed as costs in the suit against the unsuccessful party. When collected, the same shall be paid to the clerk of the court for deposit in the state general fund or to reimburse an employer in an amount not to exceed fifty dollars per day for the first three days served by the employee.

 In drawing the list of jurors, the court shall select from no less than seventy-five names thereon and from such additional lists of names as the court may order, or from such lesser number as may be called to serve as jurors, the names of either twelve or twenty-three persons who shall constitute a grand jury and four alternate grand jurors. The members of the county grand jury shall be selected by the chief judge with the advice of the district attorney. The court may close to the public part or all of the selection process when reasonably necessary to protect the grand jury process or the security of the grand jurors. The length of term served by a county grand jury shall be as provided in section 13-71-120 . The court, upon its own motion or at the request of the district attorney, shall enter an order to preserve the confidentiality of all information that might identify grand jurors when reasonably necessary to protect the grand jury process or the security of the grand jurors. In the absence of such an order, upon request, the jury commissioner shall make available for inspection by members of the public a list of grand jurors containing only the grand jurors' names and juror numbers. The court may strike the name of any juror who appears to the court to be incompetent or unqualified to serve.   History. Source: L. 70: R&RE, p. 245, § 1. C.R.S. 1963: § 78-6-3.

 Before a grand jury at any term of court is sworn or affirmed, the court shall appoint a foreman of such jury and an alternate foreman to act in the absence of the foreman, and such foreman or alternate foreman has power to administer an oath or affirmation to any and all witnesses who may be required to testify before such jury. He shall also endorse upon every bill that may be presented to a grand jury the finding of such jury that the same is “a true bill” or “not a true bill”, as the case may be, and sign his name thereto before the same is returned into court.

2021 Colorado Code|Title 13 - Courts and Court Procedure|Article 72 - Grand Jurors|§ 13-72-105. Oath of Foreman - Jurors

  Before a grand jury enters upon its duties, an oath or affirmation shall be administered to the foreman, as follows:    An oath or affirmation shall be administered to the other grand jurors as follows:     “You, as foreman of this inquest, do solemnly swear or affirm that you will diligently inquire into, and true presentment make, of all such matters and things as shall be given you in charge, or shall otherwise come to your knowledge touching the present service; you will present no person through malice, hatred, or ill will, and that you will leave no one unpresented through fear, favor, or affection, or for any fee or reward or the hope or promise thereof; that you will keep secret your own counsel and that of your fellows touching the present service, and that in all your presentments, you will present the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, according to the best of your skill and understanding, so help you God.”   “You and each of you do solemnly swear or affirm that you will well and truly keep and observe the oath that” A.B.,“your foreman, has just taken before you, so help you God.”   History. Source: L. 70: R&RE, p. 245, § 1. C.R.S. 1963: § 78-6-5. History. Source: L. 70: R&RE, p. 245, § 1. C.R.S. 1963: § 78-6-5.    ANNOTATION   Annotator's note. Since § 13-72-105 is similar to repealed laws antecedent to CSA, C. 95, § 62, a relevant case construing those provisions has been included in the annotations to this section.   Generally mere juror prejudice will not invalidate an indictment. The general rule is that neither the bias nor prejudice of a grand juror, nor his interest in a prosecution, other than a direct pecuniary interest, nor the fact that he has formed, or expressed an opinion will so disqualify him as to render invalid indictments returned by the grand jury. But this would not be true where jurors had determined, through malice or bribery, to violate their oaths. Joslyn v. People, 67 Colo. 297 , 184 P. 375 (1919).   If juror enters into agreement to violate oath, he is in contempt. Under this section if, before taking oath, a juror has entered into an agreement or conspiracy to violate it, and as a grand juror he is engaged in consummating that agreement or conspiracy, he is clearly in contempt and may be punished. Joslyn v. People, 67 Colo. 297 , 184 P. 375 (1919).

 At any time for cause shown, the court may excuse a grand juror permanently and, if so excused, the court shall select a replacement grand juror from one of the four alternate grand jurors chosen pursuant to section 13-72-103 .
