Serving Clients in Utah County Felony & Misdemeanor Cases
Criminal cases in Provo, Utah can be handled through two different systems, depending on the level of the offense.
Provo City Justice Court – Misdemeanors
The Provo City Justice Court has jurisdiction over infractions, class B and class C misdemeanors. Prosecutions in the Provo City Justice Court are normally handled by the Provo City Prosecutor. Although city prosecutors may handle cases up to the class A misdemeanor level, class A charges must be filed in the district court.
The best defense attorneys challenge the status quo through ethical advocacy both in and out of the courtroom.
Fourth District Court in Provo – Felonies & Misdemeanors
The Provo District Court (part of the Utah Fourth District) has general jurisdiction over all criminal charges, ranging from infractions to capital felonies. Felony prosecutions and some misdemeanor prosecutions in the district court are handled by prosecutors from the Utah County Attorney’s office.
