What We Do

Government officers are limited in what they can and cannot do by statute. Section 17-18-1, Utah Code Annoted , lists the powers, duties, and prohibited activites of county attorneys in the state of Utah.

Criminal Prosecution

Annually, we prosecute, on average, 200-300 District Court cases, 500-600 Justice Court cases, and 100-200 Juvenile Court cases.

Crime Victim Advocacy
