Colorado Petition For Waiver of Parental Notification Requirements is a petition form used by a minor in the state of Colorado who wishes to receive medical care without notifying their parent or guardian. This form is available for minors seeking medical services such as contraception, abortion, drug or alcohol abuse treatment, HIV/AIDS testing and treatment, mental health services, and medical care related to sexually transmitted diseases. There are two types of Colorado Petition For Waiver of Parental Notification Requirements: judicial bypass and bypass without judicial review. Judicial bypass requires the minor to appear in court and present evidence that they are mature enough to make the medical decision on their own, whereas bypass without judicial review requires an independent third party to review the minor’s circumstances and make a recommendation to the court. Both types of petitions require a written statement from the minor explaining why they are seeking the waiver of parental notification.
