Full text

Licenses to marry must be issued by the county clerk and recorder only during the hours that the office of the county clerk and recorder is open as prescribed by law and at no other time, and such licenses must show the exact date and hour of their issue. New licenses to marry issued pursuant to section 14-2-106 (3)(a) must show the date and hour of issuance of the new license, but the effective date of the marriage is the date listed on the original license to marry. New licenses to marry issued pursuant to section 14-2-106 (3)(a) are valid. A license shall not be valid for use outside the state of Colorado. Within the state, such licenses shall not be valid for more than thirty-five days after the date of issue. If any license to marry is not used within thirty-five days, it is void and shall be returned to the county clerk and recorder for cancellation.
