The People of the State of Colorado v. Joshua Epps

Summary

The court reversed the order disqualifying the district attorney's office and appointing a special prosecutor. It held that the district attorney had objected to disqualification, had no personal or financial interest in the prosecution, and was not subject to disqualification based on extreme circumstances because the proposed testimony was limited to impeaching a witness on an uncontested collateral matter. The court remanded for further proceedings consistent with its opinion.
