The water-court resume watch
Every month, each of Colorado's seven water courts publishes a resume — the official list of new water cases filed that month. The resume is legal notice: a filing that could affect your water right is considered announced once it appears there, and the window to file a statement of opposition closes on a court deadline roughly two months out. Water lawyers read resumes for paying clients every month. Volunteer ditch secretaries almost never see them. So each month, DitchBook matches all seven resumes against the 1,390-company census and publishes which companies were named — by whom, in which case, with a link to the court's own document.
Corrections (July 28, 2026): Division 1's May section previously displayed the April résumé due to a document-selection defect (the genuine May résumé is now included); several case headings derived from historical decree references were removed; company attributions withdrawn as wrong-company or unsupported matches: Park Ditch Company, Park Reservoir Company, Feeder Ditch Company, Windsor Reservoir Inc., Robinson Ditch Company; two May filings recovered that had been missed; quoted excerpts are now character-faithful with marked truncations.
