Explanation
Colorado's 'Safe Homes for Victims Act' (C.R.S. § 38-12-401 et seq.) allows tenants who are victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, or stalking to terminate a lease early by providing written notice and supporting documentation. The landlord cannot impose an early termination penalty in these circumstances.
