South Weber Justice Court Information

June 19, 2023 By Lauren


The South Weber Justice Court has jurisdiction over class C and class B misdemeanor level charges that occur within the borders of South Weber, Utah. More serious felony and class A misdemeanor charges must be filed in the district court for Davis County. Criminal charges commonly prosecuted in Utah’s justice court system include DUI, domestic violence, drug charges, retail theft, and most traffic-related offenses.

Penalties for a class B misdemeanor conviction can include up to 180 days jail; a class C misdemeanor carries a potential of 90 days in jail. The court can also impose heavy fines and a variety of probation conditions that can include community service, treatment or counseling, drug testing, supervised probation, GPS monitoring (house arrest), and more. It is tempting to consider a justice court misdemeanor case as relatively unimportant. But the consequences of a conviction can be serious. Contact us today to see how we can help.

    Victories in Utah Criminal Defense Cases

    Client faced felony charges for allegedly using a gun to menace another driver during road rage incident. Defense trial strategy demonstrated that the alleged victim was the likely aggressor and that client had taken reasonable action to defend himself.

    Client charged with felony insurance fraud after claiming work-related injury prevented him from returning to work. Insurance investigators obtained video that included client kicking soccer ball in his yard. Government allegations of fraud were rebutted by medical records and prior administrative adjudications. Client’s job required heavy lifting. The claimed injury did not prevent him from kicking a ball but did prevent him from lifting. Prosecutor conceded error and voluntarily dismissed the case.

    Client faced first-degree felony charges for selling drugs to undercover police officer. Mitigating evidence gathered by defense relating to client’s youth, family support, treatment options, and lack of prior history was pivotal in convincing prosecutor to allow an abeyance agreement to a single misdemeanor count. Case was ultimately dismissed.
