Offense Code Request
Requesting an Offense Code be added to the Shared Master Offense Table (SMOT)
The Shared Master Offense Table has been built to provide consistency in offenses used throughout the criminal justice system. The Utah Prosecution Council, Administrative Office of the Courts, Driver License Division and Bureau of Criminal Identification all contribute to the Shared Master Offense Table.
If the request includes 5 or more offense codes the request should be sent in a spreadsheet format and emailed to smotrequest@utcourts.gov. Each request must include the offense code violation, offense code effective date, description, default severity class, recommended bail amount and if the offense requires a mandatory court appearance.
The Utah State Courts mission is to provide the people an open, fair, efficient, and independent system for the advancement of justice under the law.
