Colorado Revised Statutes Title 8. Labor and Industry § 8-12-114. Appeal from denial or cancellation of school release permit--procedure

(1) If a minor is refused a school release permit or has had a school release permit canceled for reasons other than the termination of employment for which the permit was granted, he shall be entitled to review by the court having jurisdiction of juvenile matters in the county in which the minor resides, in accordance with the procedures described in this section.

(2) The official who refused to issue or canceled the school release permit shall, upon demand made within five days after the refusal or cancellation, promptly furnish the minor and his parent or guardian with a written statement of the reasons for such refusal or cancellation.

(3) Within five days after the receipt of such statement, the minor and his parent or guardian may petition the court for an order directing the issuance or reissuance of a school release permit. The petition shall state the reasons why the court should issue such an order, and the petitioner shall attach to such petition the statement of the issuing officer obtained as provided in subsection (2) of this section.

(4) The court shall hold a hearing and receive such further testimony and evidence as it deems necessary. If the court finds that the issuance or reissuance of a permit is in the best interest of the minor, it shall grant the petition.

(5) No fee shall be charged by the court in such proceedings.
