Editor's note:
  1. Subsection (1)(a) references the 1973 supplement to Colorado Revised Statutes 1973; however, the laws enacted during the 1972 and 1973 legislative sessions for inclusion in the compilation of Colorado Revised Statutes 1973 were not available until 1974. The 1973 supplement was not published separately in a pocket part or in a single bound volume. (See Senate Bill 035, Session Laws of Colorado 1974, ch. 103, p. 425, and § 2-5-121 prior to its repeal in 2005.)
  2. Subsection (1)(v) was originally lettered as subsection (1)(w) in House Bill 97-1005 but has been relettered on revision for ease of location.
