Editor's note: (1) This section was originally numbered as § 13-21-125 in House Bill 06-1382 but has been renumbered on revision for ease of location.
(2) In Snyder v. Phelps , 562 U.S. 443 (2011), the United States Supreme Court held that the first amendment shields military funeral protesters from tort liability for picketing because picketing constitutes protected speech on matters of public concern and because the father of the deceased was not a member of a captive audience.
(3) Section 31(2) of chapter 123 (SB 21-006), Session Laws of Colorado 2021, provides that the act changing this section applies to final dispositions of human remains or human fetuses made on or after September 7, 2021.
