AI-generated summary. We recommend consulting the bill text for important decisions.
Utah law already holds dog owners liable for injuries their animals cause, and this bill makes two updates to the rules governing how victims can seek compensation. It explicitly sets a four-year deadline for filing a dog attack injury claim and raises the maximum amount a person can recover — whether through arbitration or a trial — from $50,000 to $75,000, not counting medical benefits, property damage, or certain legal costs.
