Warrant Records in Cache County
Active warrants issued in Cache County can be searched through the Utah statewide warrant database. Visit secure.utah.gov/warrants and search by name to see if a warrant is currently active. This free tool covers all Utah counties and is updated regularly by law enforcement agencies across the state.
You can also call the Cache County Sheriff's Office at (435) 755-1000 to inquire about a specific warrant. The records staff can confirm whether a warrant is active in Cache County. Under Utah Code § 77-7-3, any person with an active warrant is subject to arrest at any time.

Warrant records are public under GRAMA unless sealed or part of an active investigation. Most outstanding warrant information is available through the statewide search tool or directly from the Sheriff's Office.
Expungement in Cache County
Utah law allows eligible individuals to expunge criminal records, including cases handled in Cache County. Expungement seals the record from public access and removes it from most database searches. Utah's Clean Slate law, which took effect in February 2022, created an automatic expungement process for certain qualifying offenses once the required waiting period has passed.
For cases that do not qualify for automatic expungement, you must file a petition with the First District Court in Logan. The process involves a $65 certification fee and a $135 petition fee. Once you file, the court notifies the Cache County Sheriff's Office, the BCI, and other relevant agencies. A hearing date is typically set. The full process often takes several months. Full instructions and forms are available at utcourts.gov/howto/expunge.
After the court grants your expungement order, the BCI updates the state criminal history database. The Cache County Sheriff's Office also updates its records. Once complete, the record will no longer appear in standard public searches through XChange or the statewide warrant database. Keep a copy of your expungement order, as you may need to provide it to certain agencies or institutions.
Criminal Records and Public Access in Cache County
Criminal history records in Cache County are subject to the Government Records Access and Management Act. GRAMA is codified at Utah Code § 63G-2-201 and gives the public the right to request most government records. You do not need a personal connection to a case to request the records. Any member of the public can submit a GRAMA request to the Cache County Sheriff's Office or the First District Court.
The Criminal Identification Act at Utah Code § 53-10-108 sets the rules for how the BCI manages statewide criminal history data. This law covers access rights, record retention, and what information must be included in a criminal history report. Records that are typically restricted include juvenile records, active investigation files, and cases that have been sealed or expunged by court order. Most adult criminal records, including booking data and court case details, are available to the public.
For very old records not available through current county offices, the Utah State Archives at archives.utah.gov may be able to help. The Archives maintains historical government records for Utah and can assist with research requests for older Cache County criminal history files.
