Generally, property settlements are not modifiable after 6 months has passed. So if one party got a bad deal at divorce, that party is stuck with it. There are exceptions - if a party committed fraud or deliberately concealed an asset, the decree may be modifiable for up to five years. And the decree itself may allow for modification, if the parties both agreed to it at the time of the Colorado dissolution.
