Laws of Utah, 1851-[ongoing].

Volumes were created after each regular and special session of the state legislature or the territorial assembly. The laws that were passed were compiled and published. Until 1972 these laws were not considered binding until publication. Early volumes often outline federal laws affecting the territories along with a copy of the U.S. Constitution. The volume for the second territorial session contains a copy of the Constitution of the State of Deseret and a reprint of laws passed by that body. Laws passed during sesions held from 1890-94 are bound together. Four volumes are completely missing from the series+ the 4th session, 1854/55; the 15th, 1865/66; the 22nd, 1876; and the 45th budget session, 1984. Certain others exist only in microfilm+ these are the 2nd, 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, 13th, 14th, 18th, and 20th sessions.
