What Lehi Felony Court Records Show
Court records for Lehi felony cases contain detailed information from the time charges are filed through final sentencing.

The degree of each felony is listed alongside the charge.
Lehi felony records also show a complete history of court proceedings. This includes the dates of each hearing, any motions filed by the prosecution or defense, and the outcome of each court event. If the case went to trial, the record notes the verdict. If the defendant entered a guilty plea, the plea date and terms are included. The sentence is recorded in full, showing prison time, probation, fines, and restitution if ordered. Under Utah law, felony sentences are served in state prison. The Utah Department of Corrections takes custody of individuals sentenced to state prison following conviction in Lehi or elsewhere in Utah County.

Utah Felony Classes in Lehi Records
Utah law breaks felonies into four classes. When you look at a Lehi felony record, the class of the offense tells you how serious the charge is and what range of punishment applies.
Capital felonies are the most serious and can result in the death penalty or life without parole. First degree felonies carry 5 years to life in prison and fines up to $10,000. Second degree felonies carry 1 to 15 years and fines up to $10,000. Third degree felonies carry up to 5 years in prison and fines up to $5,000. These ranges come from Utah Code Title 76. In Lehi cases, the record will show both the charge level and the actual sentence imposed by the court.
Note: A Lehi felony record showing a charge does not confirm guilt. Many cases are dismissed, reduced, or result in acquittal before final judgment.
Clearing a Lehi Felony Record
Lehi residents with a past felony conviction may be eligible to petition for expungement. An expungement seals the record so it no longer appears in standard public searches. It does not erase the record entirely, but it removes it from the public court database and from XChange results.
To begin the process, you need a certificate of eligibility from the Utah Bureau of Criminal Identification at bci.utah.gov/expungements. BCI reviews your criminal history and determines if you qualify. Not all felony convictions are eligible. Capital felonies, first degree violent offenses, and sex crimes are generally excluded from expungement. If BCI issues the certificate, you then file a petition at the 4th District Court in Utah County. The court may schedule a hearing before granting the expungement. Once approved, Lehi felony records covered by the order are sealed from public access.
