Utah Felony Classes in Bountiful Cases
Utah defines felony crimes under Utah Code Title 76. Four levels exist. Capital felonies are the most serious. First degree felonies carry five years to life in prison and fines up to $10,000. Second degree felonies carry one to fifteen years and fines up to $10,000. Third degree felonies carry up to five years and fines up to $5,000.
Under Utah Code section 76-3-201, felony sentences are served in state prison, not county jail. The Utah Department of Corrections manages state prison facilities and offers an offender search at corrections.utah.gov for people in custody or on supervision. All felony classes create a record in the 2nd District Court file and in BCI's statewide database for Bountiful cases. The felony class for each charge appears in the XChange docket as part of the case filing information.
Note: Third degree felonies in Bountiful cases may sometimes result in probation rather than prison time, depending on the judge's decision and the defendant's history.
Expungement of Bountiful Felony Records
Some Bountiful felony convictions may qualify for expungement under Utah law. Expungement seals the record from public access. Capital felonies and first degree felonies are not eligible. Certain second and third degree felony convictions may qualify after a waiting period following full completion of the sentence, including probation and parole.
The Bureau of Criminal Identification handles the certificate of eligibility step. BCI reviews the conviction and issues a certificate if the case qualifies. The petitioner then files that certificate with the 2nd District Court in Farmington, where the Bountiful conviction was entered. The court holds a hearing and makes the final decision on whether to grant the expungement. Full eligibility requirements and steps to file are at bci.utah.gov/expungements.
