Bill Summary

CONCERNING PERMITTING A NAME CHANGE FOR A PERSON CONVICTED OF A FELONY TO CONFORM WITH THE PERSON'S GENDER IDENTITY.

AI Summary

This bill permits a person convicted of a felony to change their name to conform with their gender identity, even if the proposed name change is not the same as the name used during the felony conviction. The bill amends existing Colorado law to allow for this type of name change, and it also exempts such name changes from the usual public notice requirement, although the court can still require public notice if the name change is requested under the felony conviction provision and is for the purpose of conforming with the person's gender identity.
