How to Submit
You may also use the State of Utah Open Records Portal to request Utah County records.
Anyone can submit a GRAMA request and the County GRAMA officer responds to all requests. The County GRAMA officer determines if records are public, private or protected.
There will be a fee if the GRAMA officer grants the request and it is for more than a few pages.
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 these files will be released to victims or witnesses after personal information is redacted.
