Rebeca Hinds, Petitioner: v. Corrine Foreman, Respondent:

Summary

The court held that the court of appeals lacked jurisdiction to review a final county-court judgment granting an anti-SLAPP special motion to dismiss. It concluded that the statutes purporting to authorize that appeal conflict with the Colorado Constitution, which reserves appellate review of county-court final judgments to the district court or the supreme court. The court remanded with instructions to dismiss the appeal and allowed Hinds to refile in the district court out of time.
