Request Details
Anyone may submit a GRAMA request, which will be assessed by the County GRAMA officer pursuant to Utah Code Annotated Title 63G, Chapter 2. Depending on the classification of the documents you request, the documents you requested will be copied and turned over to you, turned over in part, or denied. A response to your request will be made within 10 business days, unless extraordinary circumstances require a delay in processing your request. You may be charged a fee for the expense of copying records, in addition to the actual cost incurred by the County in processing your request if the time taken to process your request exceeds 15 minutes.
Juvenile court case files are protected and are generally not released. However, parents of juveniles accused or convicted of an offense may request a copy of the incident report which will most often be released after personal information is redacted.
Adult criminal case files are private records and only released to the individuals authorized by statute. Most often some of the information in those files will be released to victims or witnesses after personal information is redacted.
