Search Daggett County Court Dockets

Searching the Daggett County Court Docket

Pick your court before anything else. That choice decides which Daggett County docket holds your answer. The Eighth District Court sits in Manila. It takes felony charges, larger civil claims, domestic matters, and probate. The Daggett County Justice Court handles local traffic cases and infractions. It also covers Class B and C misdemeanors and small claims. Juvenile cases go through a restricted Eighth District Juvenile Court route. A vague search for Daggett court records can blend all of these into noise.

Next, match the tool to your question. Xchange carries public case history. The Utah Court Calendar lists hearings that have been scheduled. MyCase gives eligible parties free authenticated access. The county CORE page works only with a citation or court case number. That is its one job: payment lookups. When a public document is missing, an old file may predate online coverage. Or you may need a certified copy. The clerk still beats every search tool.

1. Write down the court, location, case type, and approximate year.
2. Search by the full case number when it is known.
3. For a name search, use the spelling in the filing and narrow by Daggett or Manila.
4. Compare the case header, parties, entries, settings, and disposition.
5. Ask the responsible clerk for an unavailable public document or certified copy.

Four Daggett County Docket Tools

Utah splits its docket access into four lanes. These are public history, party access, calendars, and local citation payments. The Utah Courts Xchange is the paid public option for district and justice case information. MyCase costs nothing but serves only verified parties and other eligible users. The Utah Court Calendar lists settings. CORE, Daggett County's own interface, is just a narrow citation or case-number payment tool.

The lanes overlap, but their records are not the same. A calendar can list a hearing months before Xchange shows the minute entry that follows it. MyCase opens party functions that public Xchange hides. CORE may return nothing for a new citation even though the paper is valid. The case may simply not have reached the local system yet.

The official Xchange entry page lays out the guest, login, and payment path. Use it for any public Daggett County docket search.

Those controls show the split clearly. Public case history runs on an account, while MyCase stays free and authenticated for eligible parties.

Inside a Daggett County Court Docket

Think of a Daggett County court docket as an index, not a story. Each entry records activity in the case. On Xchange you can see the court and location. You also get the case number and type, the filing date, parties and their roles, the judge, charges or claims, proceedings, settings, judgment data, and the disposition. Some entries include a document link with a page count. That does not mean every pleading or order is downloadable. Private, protected, or sealed material still follows Utah access rules.

Read every field in context. "Pending" means neither a conviction nor a judgment. The filing date is not the date of the citation. A judgment entry date and the date the judgment was later satisfied are two different things. Names appear exactly as filed. Initials, punctuation, suffixes, and business-name formatting can all trip up a docket search.

The Utah Courts Xchange help screen shows the controls used to narrow a Daggett County court docket.

County, court, name, case-number, type, and date fields all support the narrow-first approach.

Daggett County Xchange Search Fields

Search small first. The official Xchange help rewards precision, and a case number is the best key. Without one, begin with the last name or company name. Then layer on court scope, case type, and dates. Search both district and justice jurisdiction only when you truly do not know the court. Broad queries can hit the result cap. They can also burn search credit without finding the right case.

Coverage has a hard edge. The Xchange coverage page lists Manila and Daggett data as complete from April 7, 2000, so an older case may live only in paper or converted records. Give the clerk the likely year, court, case type, and parties. An empty online result never proves that no case exists.

Courts That Keep Dockets in Daggett County

Daggett County shares Utah's Eighth Judicial District with Duchesne and Uintah Counties. A regional district judge may handle a Manila case. The judge need not sit at the county site every day. The Justice Court is a separate local court of limited jurisdiction. Whichever venue takes the case controls the record route. It also controls the case number, the calendar location, and the clerk contact.

Appeals from the Justice Court travel the district-court route first. District and juvenile appeals generally go to the Utah Court of Appeals, while the Utah Supreme Court takes the state's specified direct categories and stands as the court of last resort. Federal dockets sit outside Xchange entirely. Those require the federal system.

Daggett County Case Number Geography

A case number only goes so far. The local CORE notice warns that a court case number is unique to its court location, not to all of Utah. So keep the location with the number. In Xchange, the first two digits generally mark the filing year. The court and case-type fields still matter, though. The year alone cannot separate one record from another.

Citations add a layer of their own. They run through the Daggett CORE portal. Xchange keeps separate citation number and citation location fields. A new citation may not appear right away. Allow for filing lag, and call the Justice Court rather than paying for repeated searches.

The official Daggett citation interface shows the single number field behind the local traffic route.

That one-field design tells you something. Party-name and general docket inquiries belong in Xchange or with the court clerk.

How to Find Court Dates and Settings

Start with the Utah Court Calendar. It searches by case number, party name, judge name, or attorney. Party and attorney forms add name fields. Attorneys can also search by Utah Bar Number. Date and location filters isolate Manila District Court or Daggett County Justice Court, and results can be sorted by judge, case name, or date and time before printing.

Calendars refresh on weekdays at about 5:00 a.m. Even so, a listed setting can move. Daggett County Justice Court generally sits the second Wednesday and Thursday of each month, though sessions can shift and extra ones get added. Confirm late changes with the local court. For a field-by-field workflow, use the Daggett County court dates page.

Some local proceedings offer remote access. The county page shows a small blue camera icon on the morning of a hearing. Official notices prohibit recording, photographing, transmitting, or otherwise capturing court proceedings. A meeting link lets you attend under court rules, not republish.

When a Daggett County Citation Is Missing

CORE can say "no result" for several reasons. Maybe the number was typed wrong, or the court location differs. The citation may simply not be filed yet. Daggett County says ordinary filing takes up to five days. Manual filing can take longer. The portal also returns no account when no money is owed.

Read the paper citation first. Match every digit and identify the court printed on it. Then contact the Court Technician for the current court date, filing status, or mandatory-appearance instructions. Never pay online to dodge an appearance requirement. A court date and a payment balance answer different questions.

A missed citation is serious. Utah warns that ignoring one can lead to a warrant or license action. The local page says the court usually gives a short period to contact the clerk after a missed date. But that is local guidance, not a guaranteed grace period.

Public Access to Court Dockets

Utah court records follow the judiciary's access rules. County administrative records answer to GRAMA, the Government Records Access and Management Act. Daggett County's NextRequest portal works for county records, but it cannot replace the Utah court-record request process. Which office holds the file decides the correct route.

Public access does not put every page online. Juvenile social and legal files are generally nonpublic. Adoption files, some domestic and guardianship material, medical information, personal identifiers, and sealed filings can be restricted too. A case-history line can remain visible while its underlying attachment is unavailable.

Daggett County Records Request Routes

Judicial records go through the Utah Courts record request process. The form lets a requester describe records and ask to inspect or receive copies. It also covers fee waivers, a basis for nonpublic access, and expedited action. Send it to the court that holds the file. Confirm the accepted delivery method first.

County administrative records follow the Daggett County GRAMA page. That page covers the NextRequest system adopted in April 2026. This split matters. A county contract, commission record, or administrative file belongs in NextRequest. A pleading, minute entry, or court order belongs with the judiciary.

Ask for a fee estimate first. County copy fees and Utah Judiciary fees come from different schedules, so keep them separate when budgeting for copies, media, certification, or staff research.

Docket Records at the Clerk's Office

The Daggett County Clerk's Office provides clerking services for the Eighth District Court. Vicki Tanner is Deputy Clerk and Eighth District Court Clerk. Larinda Isaacson is County Clerk. Citation, date, bail, small-claims, hearing, and payment questions all go to one place. That place is Daggett County Justice Court. The Justice Court handles those separately.

Official pages disagree about the address. County pages say 95 N 1st West. The Utah Courts location page, though, says 95 North 100 West. Call before you travel. The Clerk posts weekday hours, while Justice Court lists split in-office and remote office periods.

The Daggett County Justice Court page presents the local court's jurisdiction, contact route, and general session information.

This official local page is the practical checkpoint for a changing court date, a mandatory appearance, or a citation question.

Old Daggett County Docket Files

Xchange coverage for Manila begins in 2000. Older records take more work. They may require staff help, a paper-file search, or a formal request. Give the court name, filing year, and case type. Add the case number if known, and names as originally filed. That detail avoids the wrong archive.

Utah says most district court locations have free public terminals. The Utah State Law Library also provides Xchange access. Call the clerk before planning any in-person search in Daggett County. Inspection can be requested without copies. Staff time may still carry fees under court rules. Reproduction may too.

Historical sources also show a former Dutch John Justice Court. Current official routes point to the county Justice Court in Manila. An older Dutch John matter may need a historic location clue plus current clerk help.

Daggett County Docket Terms

Utah interfaces often say "case history," "proceeding," "calendar," and "case information" rather than docket on every screen. Those labels connect results to events.

Case history

The chronological index of recorded events in a case.

Setting

A scheduled hearing or court appearance that may later be reset.

Disposition

The recorded outcome or status of a case, charge, or claim.

Judgment entry

The date a court judgment was entered, not necessarily paid or satisfied.

Continuance

A requested and court-approved move to another date.

A date on the docket calendar only tells you a hearing was scheduled. The Daggett County case history or minute entry shows what actually happened, and the clerk can clarify any result that reads unclearly.

Daggett County Court Dockets by City

Daggett County contains just two incorporated towns: Manila and Dutch John, per official 2020 data. Neither town runs its own municipal court docket. Manila sits as a named district-court location. Still, most local matters land in Daggett County Justice Court. Think traffic tickets, infractions, misdemeanors, and small claims. Dutch John once had a justice court. It survives only in historical records, not as a working venue for a docket search.

Keep in mind that town hall records are civic files, not court files. For case histories, court dates, and judicial records, use the town portals for civic business and Utah court sources for the rest.

Map and Directions to the Daggett County Courthouse

Manila District Court, the Eighth Judicial District's Daggett County location, and Daggett County Justice Court both operate from the county courthouse at 95 N 1st West in Manila, the county seat, where the County Clerk's office also provides District Court clerking services. Historical Judicial Council material describes the building as a leased, one-courtroom contract court site of about 3,157 square feet, so visitors should expect a small facility rather than a large multi-court complex.

The Utah Courts contact page lists a slightly different street form, 95 North 100 West, for this same Manila location; call the Clerk at 435-784-3154 or the Justice Court at 435-784-3216 before traveling to confirm the current address and the day's schedule. No official source publishes courthouse parking or security-screening details.
