Yes, in Colorado, you must be an attorney to serve as a judge. Specifically, candidates must be licensed to practice law in the state and have at least five years of legal experience. Additionally, they must meet other qualifications, such as being a resident of the district where they will serve.

What is a negative aspect of being a judge?

Well, it is VERY difficult to even become a Judge. You have to first attend Law School and become an Attorney (the more experience, the better) (Law school takes typically 7 years) So let's say you're an Attorney for 5 years. That's 12 years right there. Then, to become a Judge you have to do many things (can't remember, but it's a laundry list) and the city has to vote for you to become the Judge. You never know what competition is with you, so all that training could lead to you not being voted in as the Judge. it would obviously be 1000x more difficult if you tried becoming a Judge in a major/large city - such as Manhattan, Denver, Tampa, etc. Becoming a Judge in a smaller city would be easier, but like I said - to get to the point is tough. You must have tons of time on your hands.

To become an executor of an estate in Colorado, you need to be named as such in the deceased person's will.
