Learn more about Mesa County

The 21st Judicial District Attorney’s Office is unique because our boundaries don’t extend past the Mesa County line, unlike many Districts in Colorado which encompass multiple counties. Our office currently has 80 employees and is growing. We think one of our best qualities is being outside the office… Who can say they have a National Monument in their backyard? Everyone in Mesa County can! Along with the amazing views and great hiking the Monument offers, it’s matched by the outdoor recreation opportunities on the Grand Mesa. In between is the confluence of the Gunnison and Colorado Rivers, complimented by world renowned bike trails, orchards, vineyards, farms and urban areas.
