Peer Court
The Cache Valley Peer Court is a first time offender program staffed by youth volunteers from around the valley. These youth volunteers act as Judges, Clerks and Mentors to first time juvenile offenders who go through the program. Peer court is a one time only opportunity for those juveniles who have committed a relatively minor crime such as truancy, shoplifting, etc. The Cache Valley Peer Court will only see cases that have been charged as Class B Misdemeanor or less. Peer Court will not see any cases involving drugs, alcohol, tobacco or those charged as Class A Misdemeanors or higher.
The benefit to going through the Peer Court processes is that upon successful completion of the program the original offence is removed from the offender’s record. If the charge is sent through the Juvenile Court it becomes part of their permanent record. The majority of the time the punishments handed down by the Juvenile Court are more sever than those handed down by the Peer Court. Punishments handed down from Peer Court usually consist of community service hours, study hours, written reports, letters of apology, Safe Teen Classes, etc.
Each case seen by the Cache Valley Peer Court has been screened for both the offence and the Offenders criminal history. Peer Court is overseen by Detective Denny Bird from the Logan City Police Department, Jescee Bennett from the Bear River Health Department and Sgt. Mitch Frost from the Cache County Sheriffs Office.
If you're between the ages of 14 and 18 and would like to be part of the Cache Valley Peer Court please contact Detective Denny Bird.
Peer Court is held on Tuesdays from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM at the Logan Municipal Court located at 290 N 100 W. Below are current dates and times for Peer Court cases and reviews. Booking numbers have been used instead of names for confidentiality purposes.
