Clinton Court Docket Searches
To search Clinton court dockets online, use Utah Courts Xchange. Set the jurisdiction to Justice Court. Choose Clinton Justice Court as the location. A case or citation number works best. Utah cautions that numbers are not unique across the state, so always pair the number with the Clinton location to keep the search local. A name search works too: enter last name or company, first name, and an asterisk wildcard. A birth date can narrow things down for a criminal defendant. Before opening any case history, check the Court Location column. Confirm the result really belongs to Clinton.
- Identify Clinton Justice Court on the citation or other case paper.
- Open Xchange and select Justice Court jurisdiction with Clinton location.
- Enter the case or citation number, or search the party name with a useful wildcard.
- Open the case number and read the public Proceedings, settings, disposition, and account summary.
- Check Utah Court Calendars for the live setting, then call the Clinton clerk to verify it.
- Visit the clerk or submit a written request if a public document or certified copy is missing.
Using Xchange from home costs a transaction charge each time. There is a free way in, though. Public Xchange terminals sit in most District courthouses and at the Utah State Law Library. A docket search there costs nothing. MyCourtCase is a different free option. But it serves only parties and other eligible participants who pass identity and case-number checks. It does not serve as the public Clinton name index for court records.
Clinton Court Records on Wednesdays
The official Clinton Justice Court page lists the session pattern. Sessions start at 1 p.m. on the first and third Wednesdays. That pattern tells you when the local courtroom tends to be busy. It is not a setting for any individual case. Holidays, cancellations, and case-specific scheduling can all change what actually happens on a given day. The city directs court users to contact the clerk to schedule or confirm a date. So verify Clinton court records in three layers. Check the citation or notice you received. Check the Utah Court Calendars entry. Then confirm with the local clerk. The calendar search accepts a case number, party, judge, attorney, date, or location. When a docket result is missing or a session might be canceled, call 801-614-0760.
Inside the Clinton Municipal Court
The court's official name is Clinton Justice Court. It is located at 2267 North 1500 West, Clinton, Utah 84015. Catherine J. Hoskins serves as judge, Amy Durrans as court administrator, and Macie Mullins as court clerk. Office hours run Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Need an appearance scheduled? The clerk handles that. The clerk also takes office payments for violations, checks on court cancellations, and the local court-record route. Clinton Justice Court handles city traffic matters, infractions, ordinance violations, class B and C misdemeanors, and small claims within Utah Justice Court jurisdiction. Felonies, class A misdemeanors, major civil cases, domestic, probate, and juvenile files live elsewhere. Knowing those limits keeps you from paying for an Xchange search in the wrong court.
Clinton Court Records at Clerk Check-In
Clinton keeps its clerk check-in refreshingly simple. Every court user signs in with the clerk before the session starts. The judge takes matters in that order. Bring your citation, case number, current ID, and any documents the court told you to provide. Show the clerk those papers when you check in. The city says that step can sometimes reduce a ticket amount. None of this appears as a field in Xchange; the live check-in runs through the local office alone. One caution is worth repeating. Showing up during office hours does not put your matter on the next court session automatically. The clerk has to schedule or confirm the appearance. A public case history may list a setting. But it cannot replace the sign-in desk that controls the actual hearing order.
Finding Clinton Court Dates
For Clinton court dates, Utah Court Calendars is the official public layer. Pick Clinton Justice Court and search by case number or party name. The full calendar view adds filters for location, date, an optional judge, and an optional attorney. Fresh data loads every weekday at 5:30 a.m. A brand-new citation can take a little time to show up. And an empty result never erases the response date printed on your ticket.
| Date | The individual hearing date, which must be distinguished from the first-and-third-Wednesday pattern. |
|---|---|
| Time | The scheduled time; Clinton's recurring court session begins at 1 p.m., but the clerk confirms each case. |
| Court | Clinton Justice Court must appear as the location for a city case. |
| Judge | The judicial officer assigned to the setting. |
| Event | Arraignment, pretrial, trial, review, or another court event. |
| Remote Details | A Webex link appears only when supplied for that hearing. |
Call the clerk if a date cancels or the listing looks off. An old calendar line is no way to confirm a current Clinton court date, so check before you rely on it.
Clinton Parking and Court Records Split
A parking ticket stuck under your wiper does not travel the same Clinton route as a traffic case. It follows a city path. City material directs parking questions to the Clinton Police Department at 801-614-0800. Payments are taken at 2209 North 1500 West. The Clinton Justice Court sits at 2267 North 1500 West. Those near-identical addresses trip up plenty of locals.
| Record or notice | Starting custodian | Local route |
|---|---|---|
| Parking citation left on a vehicle | Clinton Police Department | Police line or parking-payment instruction |
| Justice Court citation | Clinton Justice Court clerk | Clerk, Xchange, and Court Calendars |
| Public case document | Originating court | Clerk request or available Xchange document |
Parking paperwork and court paperwork sit in different hands. A parking notice from the city does not run through the Justice Court clerk first, so take that separate notice to the route the city spells out. Clinton court records are a different matter; the police department does not keep those, and the Justice Court clerk is where they live.
Clinton Traffic Ticket Lookups
Start with the citation itself. It should name Clinton Justice Court and show a response date. In Xchange, narrow the search to Justice Court and the Clinton location. Then search by citation number, case number, or party. Utah Court Calendars then shows the setting. The Clinton clerk can confirm whether payment is an option. The clerk can also set an appearance and give current response instructions.
Paying and contesting leave different marks on Clinton court records. A payment acts as an admission and closes the matter when the violation is payable. Contesting means a not-guilty response and a hearing date. Follow the city's own instructions, not Ogden's separate fourteen-day wording. Utah's Uniform Fine Schedule sets a statewide baseline. But the court order in the case controls the amount. For the countywide split, see Weber County traffic court records.
Clinton Court Records Entered Into CORIS
Clinton has been electronic for a while. An official city budget for fiscal year 2014/15 reported that mandated e-file software went live in 2013-14. It also reported that citations were filed directly into CORIS. That milestone explains why Clinton case information now flows into the statewide Utah Courts environment. It says nothing about the current vendor. And it does not prove that every older record carries the same electronic detail.
Clerk staff enter the local case into CORIS. Xchange shows the public summary, and Court Calendars shows settings. The clerk keeps operational control and provides copies. Converted older records can be thin. When a public image is missing, a written Utah court-record request may be the way in.
How Clinton Cases Reach the County
Clinton Justice Court handles the lower-level city matters. Felonies, class A misdemeanors, District Court civil suits, domestic cases, probate, and name changes all belong at Weber County - Ogden District Court instead. Juvenile delinquency and child-welfare records sit with the Second District Juvenile Court. An appeal from Justice Court goes up to District Court for a trial de novo, which means the case is tried fresh rather than reviewed only on the local record.
Docket flow: Clinton Justice Court › Weber County - Ogden District Court › Utah Court of Appeals when the appeal route permits.
Pick the court level before running an Xchange search. A city police event can still land in District Court when the charge exceeds Justice Court jurisdiction. Note the court location on each result, and use the county docket search when the case is not a Clinton Justice Court matter.
Clinton Court Records and City Scale
How big is Clinton? The July 1, 2025 Census estimate puts the city at 23,797, up from 23,386 in the 2020 Census. That ranks Clinton third among the five incorporated Weber County cities on these court pages. Population is context only; it is not a count of court filings.
Clinton Justice Court publishes no annual case total. For a real count, use the Utah judiciary dashboard with the Clinton court location and a named fiscal year. Never estimate filings from population.
Who Can See Clinton Court Records
Public Clinton court records can be inspected through Xchange, a courthouse terminal, or the clerk. Copies of filed public images may carry a document charge. Certification comes only from the court that holds the record. Need a missing file, an archived record, or an access decision? Use the written request form. The court usually answers a written request within ten business days. Though an answer is not the same as finished production by that date.
Utah access rules:
UCJA Rule 4-202.02 presumes court records public unless another class applies.
UCJA Rule 4-202.04 governs written requests and proof for non-public access.
Utah Code 63G-2-301 recognizes judicial records as public unless court rules, orders, or private classifications restrict them.
Plenty stays out of public view. Sealed and expunged cases, juvenile files, adoption and civil-commitment records, private domestic filings, medical information, and personal identifiers are all withheld from ordinary inspection. A citation itself is private, though a redacted abstract may be released.
Clinton Court Records Request Details
For a paper that appears in Proceedings but has no image, write down the event date and title. Then contact the clerk. That small record trail lets Clinton staff tell the docket entry apart from the document behind it.
A written request should name Clinton Justice Court, the case number, and the exact filing or date range. It should also say whether you want inspection or a copy. The form also asks for an acknowledgment of possible fees. Anyone seeking a non-public record must state a basis: being the subject, having supplied the information, holding authorization, or some other legal ground. Identification and supporting documents may be required. Mail and pickup arrangements come from the clerk. Email or fax carries a separate charge. It is not used for records already on Xchange.
Read a Clinton case history in layers. The header identifies court, case number, and type. Party and attorney data comes next. Proceedings lists the dated sequence of filings, hearings, pleas, payments, and rulings. The $1 Xchange Purchase link is separate from the case-number link that expands the history. Neither turns the screen into a certified copy. When official proof matters, ask Clinton Justice Court for the named document with certification. Utah Courts eFiling serves authorized filers only, so it is not a public record channel.
Clinton Court Records Official City Source
The official Clinton Justice Court source gathers the city's clerk, schedule, address, payment, and check-in information in one place.
The city page covers what a statewide case summary cannot: Wednesday sessions, cancellation checks, clerk-first documentation, and the parking-citation split.
