Legal Question in Family Law in Colorado
I am representing myself in court. I know I have to submit a copy of all my evidence I plan to present in court to the other attorney. I plan to have as much information available with me in court, should anything else come up. So my question is this: If the judge asks a question and I can answer it and prove it by emails received, can I submit them in court, if they were not part of the discovery information?

You need to review the Colorado Rules of Evidence. You need to lay a proper foundation for the introduction of any documents and have the Court accept them into the record before the judge will consider them. If the emails are relevant and were not disclosed prior to trial, you can expect an objection by opposing counsel and will need to be prepared to answer the objection. This is not a simple process.
