How much can I sue for in small claims court in Utah?

Answered for: Utah

A small claims action is a civil action: (a) for the recovery of money when: (i) the amount claimed does not exceed: (A) on or after May 4, 2022, through December 31, 2024, $15,000 including attorney fees but exclusive of court costs and interest; (B) on or after January 1, 2025, through December 31, 2029, $20,000 including attorney fees but exclusive of court costs and interest; and (C) on or after January 1, 2030, $25,000 including attorney fees but exclusive of court costs and interest;

Utah caps a small claims suit at $20,000, DATE-TIERED. $15,000 from 2022-05-04 to 2024-12-31; $20,000 from 2025-01-01 to 2029-12-31 (operative on the read date); $25,000 from 2030-01-01. Amount INCLUDES attorney fees but excludes court costs and interest..

This answer is true in Utah and nowhere else on this site. Another jurisdiction is another answer, or an honest gap: see what has been read for Utah.
