May i. 10H S (P Farm Bureau New law consolidates urges judicial districts . of Monday, Salt Lake City--A-s April 25, a new atate law realigning the judicial districta in the atate took effect. The law, pa8aed by the 1988 Utah Legialature, created eight judicial districta statewide, and consolidated the boundaries of the district, juvenile and circuit courts. The eight districts replace the old system of seven judicial districts for the District Court, six for the Juvenile Court, and twelve for the Circuit Court Each of the eight districts now have a district juvenile and circuit court with all three courts having the same numbering systems. For example, in the Salt Lake County area, 3rd District Court, 2nd District Juvenile Court, and 5th Circuit Court all coverthe same geographical area. With the realignment the three courts become 3rd District Court, 3rd District Juvenile Court, and 3rd Circuit Court This common numbering system should reduce the confusion that has existed to the public and the legal community due to the system for courts covering the same geographical area. The new boundaries will also consolidate administration in some areas and pave the way for more efficient operation of the courts. In addition, the number of judicial nominating commissions will be reduced from 25 to eight Each of these eight commissions will nominate candidates to fill judicial vacancies for all three trial courts, instead ofhavingaseparate nominating commission far each court level in each district The boundary changes will not affect the number of judges statewide. There will still be 29 district judges, 12 juvenile judges, and 37. circuit judges. However, some judges standing for retention election in November will be placed on the ballot in new counties. For the 8th District which effects Daggett Duchesne and Uin-ta- h County, the District Court Judge is Dennis Draney. TheJuve-nil- e Court Judges are Leslie Brown and Merrill Herman sen. The Cir-- . cuit Court Judge is A. Lynn Payne, Incentive program for good drivers The Utah Driver License Division has inaugurated a Good Driver Incentive Program.
