Summary of Records
Scope and Content
Under the 1887 Edmunds-Tucker Law, commissioners appointed by the supreme court and district courts in the Territory of Utah had and could exercise all the powers and jurisdiction held by justices of the peace in the Territory. After statehood in 1896, jurisdiction passed from U.S. Commissioners to local justices of the peace.
These dockets record actions in cases heard before Commissioner E. T. Hulaniski in Weber County. Most actions are civil and related to monies owed. The docket records the parties involved, their attorneys, and the actions and dates of actions taken in the case.
