If the secretary of state determines, after a hearing, that the violation has occurred, he or she shall so notify the attorney general, who may institute a civil action for relief, including a permanent or temporary injunction, a restraining order, or any other appropriate order, in the district court. Upon a proper showing that such person has engaged or is about to engage in any prohibited acts or practices, a permanent or temporary injunction, restraining order, or other order shall be granted without bond by the court. If, within one hundred twenty days after a complaint is filed with the secretary of state, no civil action for relief is instituted by the attorney general, the complainant shall have a private right of action based on an alleged violation of this part 5 and may institute a civil action in district court for any appropriate remedy. Any such action shall be filed within one year from the date of the alleged violation.\n\n(2) Unless a person intentionally takes voluntary action to register to vote knowing that he or she is not eligible to register, the transfer of the person's electronic record by a voter registration agency in accordance with section 1-2-213.3 or 1-2-502.5 does not constitute the completion of a voter registration form by that person. If such a registration is processed by the state, it is presumed to have been officially authorized by the state and the person is not subject to any penalty under this code.","path":["Title 1 - ELECTIONS","Article 2 - Qualifications and Registration of Electors","Part 5 - MAIL REGISTRATION AND REGISTRATION AT VOTER REGISTRATION AGENCIES"],"source_url":"https://olls.info/crs/crs2026-title-01.htm","current_through":"Colorado Revised Statutes 2026","vintage":"","retrieved_at":"2026-09-14T18:37:45Z","sha256":"f6dd987e2b21bb3d9780fdffca8c326f742c951d6cbd3f17051911b43ef03857","source_id":"us-co","stale":false,"prev":"us-co/c.r.s.-1-2-510","next":"us-co/c.r.s.-1-2-601"},"notice":"GroundRules: Original legal text.
