Contracts
In Colorado, what does it mean when a contract is 'executed' versus 'executory'?

BB. An executory contract is one where performance is still outstanding; an executed contract is one where all parties have fully performed their obligations✓ Correct
CC. Executed means signed by an attorney
DD. Executory means notarized
Explanation
An executory contract is one in which performance by one or both parties is still pending (e.g., a purchase contract that has been signed but not yet closed). An executed contract is one where all parties have fully performed their obligations (e.g., the sale has closed, deeds have been delivered, and funds disbursed). Most real estate contracts at signing are executory.
