As if 5 crazy crimes wasn’t enough (see our previous blog), here are five more misdemeanor laws you probably didn’t even know existed in Greeley and Weld County.
Greeley Bringing Alcohol Beverages, Bottles or Cans into the Major League Baseball Stadium: C.R.S. 18-9-123
We have all done it – snuck some candy into the Greeley movie theater or to a show. But, it’s a class 1 petty offense to try and bring any alcohol into a major league baseball stadium. Apparently, it’s fine at other sports venues – just not for the Rockies game at Coors field. Ironic, since the stadium is actually named after alcohol.
Weld County Fighting by Agreement or Dueling Attorney: C.R.S 18-13-104
Let’s say you get into an argument with someone in a Weld County bar and the two of you agree to take it outside. Because the parking lot is a public place, you can be charged with a class 1 petty offense for Dueling, like we live in the wild west or something.
Logan County Intentional Misrepresentation of a Service Animal: C.R.S. 18-13-107.7
It seems like lately I have seen more and more people with service dogs in Logan County, providing physical and emotional support. Even if you feel that your dog is an emotional support animal, if it hasn’t been officially deemed as such and you tell someone it has, you can get charged with a class 2 petty offense.
Fort Morgan Unlawful to Sell Metal Beverage Containers with Detachable Opening Devices: C.R.S. 18-13-113
Retailers beware! If the name of this crime alone didn’t make you scoff, then I don’t know what would. It is a class 2 petty offense to sell a metal container meant to hold beverages if the lid is detachable. Attached lid – golden; detachable lid – criminal!
Fort Lupton Telephone Record Sale or Purchase Lawyer: C.R.S 18-13-125
Wondering who your significant other has been chatting with on the phone? Well, don’t try and get those phone records without the Fort Lupton police or Weld County Court’s permission. Otherwise, you could be facing a class 1 misdemeanor criminal charge.
