Phone Recording

[KDHesselhaus]

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Colorado
Is it legal / ethical, to record a phone conversation without the knowledge of the person being recorded?
Can this informaiton then be used to influence the Magistrate in a DHS case or the judge in a child visitation case?

Please don't post multiple threads on the same topic.

Here's a link with an answer to your recording question:

The answer Flying Ron gave you in your first thread was correct. CO is a one-party state. The recording was not unlawfully made.

Whether or not it will be properly "used against" you is up to the magistrate/judge. Certainly the person who recorded you has the right to attempt to use it.
