Why a filing to the District of Colorado is not a fax

The District of Colorado requires attorneys to file through CM/ECF, so fax is not the channel for a court filing. A represented party e-files through the system, while a self-represented filer usually files on paper by mail or at the clerk's counter. That is why this page shows how to confirm the clerk's current fax rather than assuming the District of Colorado takes one.
