As these documents enter the case file they are recorded in the Criminal Registers of Actions. Registers of Actions function as a chronological list of the actions taken in each criminal case. Cases from Salt Lake County are most numerous but matters from outlying Summit and Tooele counties are common. During the days of the territory, the Third Judicial District also included Davis County. A small number of case files from this county may be included.
Entries are numerical by case number, thereunder chronological.
Researchers should consult this series to ensure finding all the actions which occurred in a case. At the beginning of each register is located an alphabetical index. Registers of Actions were first scheduled as permanent records in 1983. These records were microfilmed and destroyed. This series was archivally processed by David Clark in February 2000.
