Q: How long do you have to comply with a judge's order in Colorado?
A: The order should be complied with as soon as is possible under the circumstances. The order may set a time period for compliance.
Kenneth V Zichi and Timothy Canty agree with this answer
A:
What game are you trying to play? If the order says 'must be paid within 14 days', you have 14 days to comply. If the order say NOTHING about time 'reasonable and as quickly as possible' are implied.
Talk with your attorney, work with the other side to come up with a reasonable time frame / agreement and you'll be fine. Play games, and you open yourself up to contempt of court which could result in fines and/or imprisonment. Don't be that guy.
