HANDBOOK OF FORMS AND INFORMATION AIDING IN THE DELEGATION OF NON-PROFESSIONAL MINISTERIAL TASKS FROM THE PROSECUTING ATTORNEY TO SPECIALLY TRAINED ASSISTANTS.
Abstract
THE UTAH PROSECUTION SYSTEM WAS PREPARED BY THE TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE BUREAU OF THE STATEWIDE ASSOCIATION OF PROSECUTORS. THE SYSTEM WAS DESIGNED TO IMPROVE THE EFFICIENCY AND THEREFORE, THE QUALITY OF THE COUNTY PROSECUTION OFFICES IN THE STATE OF UTAH. PROFESSIONAL TASKS REQUIRING THE COUNTY ATTORNEY'S ATTENTION HAVE BEEN DISTINGUISHED FROM MINISTERIAL TASKS WHICH COULD BE PERFORMED BY NONLAWYERS. BASED ON THIS, THE BULK OF THE SYSTEM IS COMPRISED OF TWO TYPES OF LEGAL FORMS, THOSE THAT REQUIRE THE EFFORTS OF THE COUNTY ATTORNEY, AND THOSE THAT COULD BE COMPLETED BY THE LEGAL ASSISTANT. AN OVERVIEW OF THE SYSTEM, A RESPONSIBILITY GUIDE, A FLOW CHART, AND GLOSSARY OF LEGAL TERMS ARE INCLUDED WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE COMPILATION OF LEGAL FORMS....MSP
