Clinton Justice Court Information

June 19, 2023 By Lauren


The Clinton Justice Court has jurisdiction over class C and class B misdemeanor level charges that occur within the borders of Clinton, Utah. The sentence for a class B misdemeanor can include up to 180 days in jail and a fine (plus surcharge) of $1900. A class C misdemeanor conviction carries the potential of up to 90 days jail plus fines. In cases where the court places a defendant on probation, the court can impose a variety of conditions including supervised probation, drug testing, treatment or counseling, community service, and other requirements determined by the court to be appropriate.

In addition to the direct penalties imposed by the court, a criminal conviction can carry collateral consequences including restrictions on your right to own or possess firearms, suspension of your driver license, loss of professional licensing, and more.

Even a misdemeanor conviction can have serious consequences. Having an experienced criminal attorney on your side can provide you with the best chance of obtaining a favorable outcome for your case.
