Salt Lake City, Utah— The Utah State Courts has launched a newly-designed Web site at www.utcourts.gov. The Web site not only has a new look, but improved navigation as well.
The amount of information posted on the court’s Web site has been steadily increasing since the Web site was first launched in 1997,” said Utah State Court Administrator Dan Becker. “The new Web site design makes it easier for court users to quickly find the information they are looking for and electronically access a variety of court services.”
The updated Web site has been designed to deliver information in a clearer and cleaner format. The changes in appearance—including color and layout—and navigation have made the site more inviting and friendlier to use.
Navigational changes include a more prominent placement of often-used services and information, including live and on-demand audio of appellate court arguments, opinions issued by the appellate courts, self-represented litigant services and information, and court cases. A juror information link is available online and allows citizens contacted for jury service to qualify online.
Materials and services of special interest to the legal community, the media, and educators are also prominently displayed on the Web site.
The state court’s Web site averages in excess of one million visitors per year.
