The Public Trust and Confidence Survey was conducted to determine the current perceptions the public has of the Utah State Court system. Salt Lake City-based Valley Research surveyed 1,201 Utah households June 28 through July 20, 2006, asking 53 questions about the public’s perception, familiarity, experience, confidence, expectations, and performance of the state courts. The survey was funded in part by a $15,000 grant from the State Justice Institute.
