How to Obtain an Order
Things You Will Need:
1. The police agency and the case number of the report on the domestic violence case. (You may get an order without them, but the information helps.)
2. The name and birth date of the person you are getting the order against.
3. The social security number of the person is also helpful.
4. The addresses you want the person to stay away from.
The description of the person and all of the places where they might be located. (This is very important, it will help the deputies locate the suspect to serve the order on. Include: Work addresses, phone numbers and times of work. Other family members' addresses and phone numbers. Friends' addresses and phone numbers.)
6. The kind of car the person is driving, with a license number if possible.
Places You Can Obtain an Order:
Matheson Court House
450 South State Street
Salt Lake City, Utah
West Jordan Court House
8080 So. Redwood Rd.
West Jordan, Utah
The Matheson office, to obtain the orders, is located on the main floor (Room # W17) of the courthouse. Remember these courthouses are secured facilities and you will have to clear a security check point prior to entering.
At the Matheson Courthouse, paid public parking is available by entering the underground parking lot from 400 South. There is very limited street parking around the courthouse. TRAX does have a stop at the courthouse on the Main Street side.
There will be people to answer your questions and help you obtain your order at both courthouses. It does take a few hours to get the paper work completed. Going in the morning is advised, but the offices are also available in the afternoon.
Office hours coincide with courthouse hours.
Monday-Friday, excluding holidays, 8:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m.
