Who Issues Warrants in Taylorsville
In Utah an arrest warrant is signed by a judge. For Taylorsville that means the District Court for Salt Lake County, which hears felonies, civil cases, divorces, probate and class A misdemeanors; the Justice Courts, which take traffic tickets, class B and C misdemeanors and small claims, issue their own warrants on the cases before them.
When a defendant misses a court date the judge issues a bench warrant, and either kind of warrant lives in the court file of the case, kept by the clerk of court.

Where a Person Arrested on a Warrant from Taylorsville Is Held

How to Check for a Warrant in Taylorsville
Whether a warrant is out from Taylorsville shows in four places:
- The court file of the case, through the clerk of court at 801-238-7300, since a warrant is recorded in the case it was issued in.
- MyCase and Xchange, free case lookup for parties through MyCase; the public Xchange search is by subscription, for a case whose register of actions shows a warrant.
- The County Attorney, phone (385) 468-7700, which can say whether charges were filed; a warrant on a complaint follows the filing.
- The custody page of the Salt Lake County Sheriff's Office at saltlakecounty.gov, which shows people already arrested and booked, not open warrants.
Not one of the Salt Lake County pages SearchSystems verified (the sheriff's, the court's, the prosecutor's and the records request page) is a list of open warrants, so a check means asking the court or the prosecutor about a case by name.
The statewide criminal history kept by the Utah Bureau of Criminal Identification is not open to the public in Utah, so it is not a route to a warrant check on someone else.
Clearing a Warrant from Taylorsville
Only the judge who issued a warrant can recall it. For a case from Taylorsville that means appearing before the District Court for Salt Lake County or the Justice Courts, with the case put back on the calendar through the clerk of court.
A missed date in a case before the Justice Courts is handled by that court, not by the District Court for Salt Lake County.
A lawyer can often arrange the appearance in advance. The County Attorney's page SearchSystems verified is at saltlakecounty.gov/district-attorney, phone (385) 468-7700.
