10th Utah Territorial Legislature

The 10th Utah Territorial Legislature comprised members of the Territorial Council serving the second year of their terms, together with members of the House of Representatives elected to one-year terms. The regular election for the House was held August 6, 1860. Several vacancies in the Territorial Council were also filled, including due to the resignations of Charles C. Rich and Orson Pratt.

Session
A special session was called for November 12, 1860, prior to the regular scheduled meeting of the legislature in December. Aside from the business of organizing each house, the extra session was primarily for the purpose of assigning the newly arrived justices of the Supreme Court to their respective districts. Once this was done, the legislature promptly adjourned again on November 13.

The regular session convened on December 10, 1860, at the Social Hall in Salt Lake City, and ended on January 18, 1861.

Members
As with the previous legislative session, Green River County did not provide anyone to fill its seat in the House.
