Thank you for your inquiry to LawGuru. You have the right to defend yourself in the Colorado Court and, if your case proceeds to a trial, the prosecution has the obligation of proving you guilty beyond a reasonable doubt of a specific criminal offense in order to obtain a conviction against you at that trial.
There is not much more advice I can provide given your question, but with the circumstances that you describe I would suggest that you want to prepare to defend yourself. You are entitled to have an attorney represent you and I would strongly recommend that you consider the option of retaining legal defense counsel.
Very best regards,
