Attorney General Cynthia H. Coffman has announced that Eddie Raymond Tipton of Flatonia, Texas, has pled guilty to theft by fraud, and computer crime charges related to his role in defrauding state lotteries in Colorado, Wisconsin and Iowa. Tipton was prosecuted in Wisconsin, as part of a multi-year, multi-state fraud case, and faces a total maximum penalty in Wisconsin of 13.5 years of incarceration.
Beginning July 1, the fee for a Colorado driver license will increase by $1--from $26 to $27. Other fees are unchanged.
This increase was a result of House Bill 16-1415, intended to offset the cost of providing Division of Motor Vehicles driver services.
The fee for a driver license under SB-251 - the Colorado Road and Community Safety Act - will not change, since the cost of providing the service is already fully recouped.
