I was evicted from house while out of town and my landlord has all my stuff
It is unclear if the eviction was legal or not from your question, and many more facts are needed to be able to properly advise you. Under C.R.S. 38-12-510, it is unlawful for a landlord to remove or exclude a tenant from there dwelling without resorting to court process. A landlord has no duty to but may choose to store or maintain your personal property that is removed from the premises during or after the execution of a writ of restitution. The landlord is immune from liability for any loss or damage to the personal property. C.R.S. 13-40-122(3)
Given the nature of situation I would recommend having a conversation with an attorney as soon as possible to understand your rights and if the landlord's actions were proper.
