How to Find Lehi Traffic Court Records

There are a few ways to look up traffic court records in Lehi. The easiest starting point is the Utah Courts online system. Utah Courts offers two main tools for public records access: MyCase and XChange. MyCase is free and shows basic case information. XChange is a paid subscription service that provides more detail and covers cases filed from July 2011 onward.

To use MyCase, go to utcourts.gov/MyCase. You can search by name or case number at no cost. The system shows you the case status, party names, and hearing dates. It does not show full document text for free. If you need the actual citation text or court documents, you will need to visit the court or use XChange.

XChange is the subscription service from Utah Courts. It costs $30 per month and gives you access to case dockets and documents filed since July 2011. Go to utcourts.gov/xchange to sign up. This is useful for attorneys, employers with a legitimate need, and others who search records frequently.

In person, you can visit the Lehi City Justice Court at 2175 North 100 East. The clerk can pull up case records by name or case number and provide copies. Bring a valid ID and the name or case number you are searching. Staff are there Monday through Thursday, 7:30 AM to 5:30 PM.

The screenshot below shows the Lehi Police Department webpage, which is part of the Lehi City portal. Traffic citations in Lehi are issued by Lehi Police, and those cases flow directly into the Justice Court system.

The Lehi Police Department can be reached through the main Lehi City site at lehi-ut.gov/departments/police-department. For questions about a specific citation, call the Justice Court directly at (385) 201-2300.

Paying Lehi Traffic Citations Online

You can pay many traffic citations in Lehi online. Utah Courts provides an ePayment system that lets you pay fines without coming to the courthouse. This is convenient for minor infractions where you do not plan to contest the ticket. Go to utcourts.gov/epayment to pay your Lehi traffic citation online.

To pay online, you need your case number. That number is on your citation. Enter it on the ePayment site, confirm the amount, and pay by card. Keep a record of your confirmation number. The payment posts to your case record, and the court will update the status. Paying online does not contest the ticket. It is an admission that you accept the citation and fine.

If you want to contest a citation, do not pay it online. Instead, call the court at (385) 201-2300 or appear in person before the due date. You can request a hearing date. Missing the due date without paying or requesting a hearing can lead to additional fees or a hold on your driver license.

Lehi Traffic Deferred Prosecution Program

Utah offers a deferred prosecution program for some traffic violations. This lets first-time or eligible offenders avoid a conviction on their record by completing certain requirements. Not all violations qualify. The program is handled through the Utah Courts system.

If you are eligible, you apply at the court and agree to conditions. Those may include a clean driving record for a set period, completion of a traffic school course, or other requirements. If you complete the terms, the charge is dismissed. The case record still exists, but the outcome shows a dismissal rather than a conviction.

To learn if your Lehi traffic case qualifies, visit utcourts.gov/deferredtraffic or call the Lehi City Justice Court at (385) 201-2300. Ask the clerk about eligibility for your specific violation. The program has limits and not every ticket qualifies.

Accessing Lehi Traffic Records Under GRAMA

Utah's Government Records Access and Management Act (GRAMA) governs access to most public records in the state. Traffic court records are generally public under Utah Code § 63G-2. This means that most case information can be requested by anyone. Some records, like juvenile cases or those sealed by court order, are not public.

To request records under GRAMA, you submit a written request to the court or agency that holds them. The Lehi City Justice Court is the right place to ask for traffic case records originating in Lehi. You do not need to give a reason for your request in most cases. The court has a set time to respond and may charge a fee for copies.

For records held by Lehi City departments, submit your GRAMA request to the city's records officer. The city website at lehi-ut.gov has contact information for city staff. Most basic traffic court records are available through MyCase or XChange without a formal GRAMA request.

What Happens at Lehi Traffic Court

When you get a traffic citation in Lehi, you have options. You can pay the fine and accept the violation. You can request a hearing to contest it. Or, if eligible, you can apply for deferred prosecution. Each path creates a record at the Lehi City Justice Court.

If you request a hearing, the court will set a date. You appear before the justice court judge and have a chance to present your case. The officer who issued the ticket may also appear. The judge decides the outcome. Whatever happens, the case record is created and stored in the court system. You can look it up later through MyCase or by visiting the court.

For Class B and C misdemeanor traffic cases, the stakes are higher. These can include reckless driving and similar offenses. You have the right to counsel. If you cannot afford an attorney for a Class B misdemeanor where jail is a possible sentence, the court may appoint one. The Utah State Courts website at utcourts.gov has more information on your rights and the process for misdemeanor traffic cases in the Fourth District.

Minor infractions do not carry jail time, but they do go on your driving record. Too many points on your Utah driver license can lead to suspension. The Driver License Division handles that separately from the court process. Their site is at dld.utah.gov, and they track driver history independent of the court records.

Lehi Traffic Court Forms

Utah Courts provides standard forms for traffic and justice court proceedings. These are the same forms used across the state, including at the Lehi City Justice Court. You can download them for free at utcourts.gov/forms. Common forms include motions to continue, requests for deferred prosecution, and fee waiver applications.

If you are not sure which form you need, call the Lehi City Justice Court at (385) 201-2300. The clerk can tell you what to file for your specific situation. Do not rely solely on general internet searches when choosing court forms. The requirements can change, and the wrong form can delay your case.
