Chapter 29. Colorado Rules of Criminal Procedure
VII. Judgment
Rule 33. New Trial
(a) Motions for New Trial or Other Relief Optional
The party claiming error in the trial of any case may move
the trial court for a new trial or other relief. The party
however, need not raise all the issues it intends to raise on
appeal in such motion to preserve them for appellate review
If such a motion is filed, the trial court may dispense with
oral argument on the motion after it is filed.
(b) Motions for New Trial or Other Relief Directed by the
Court.
The court may direct a party to file a motion for a new trial
or other relief on any issue. The failure of the party to
file such a motion when so ordered shall preclude appellate
review of the issues ordered to be raised in the motion. The
party, however, need not raise all the issues it intends to
raise on appeal in such motion to preserve them for appellate
review.
(c) Motion; Contents; Time.
The court may grant a defendant a new trial if required in
the interests of justice. The motion for a new trial shall be
in writing and shall point out with particularity the defects
and errors complained of. A motion based upon newly
discovered evidence or jury misconduct shall be supported by
affidavits. A motion for a new trial based upon newly
discovered evidence shall be filed as soon after entry of
judgment as the facts supporting it become known to the
defendant, but if a review is pending the court may grant the
motion only on remand of the case. A motion for new trial
other than on the ground of newly discovered evidence shall
be filed within fifteen days after verdict or finding of
guilt or within such additional time as the court may fix
during the fifteen-day period.
(d) APPEAL BY PROSECUTION. THE ORDER OF THE TRIAL COURT
GRANTING THE MOTION IS A FINAL ORDER REVIEWABLE ON APPEAL.
