AI-generated summary. We recommend consulting the bill text for important decisions.
Utah law currently limits how city attorneys can staff their legal work, and this bill expands that flexibility by allowing city attorneys to hire deputy attorneys to handle prosecution of local ordinance violations or civil legal work on behalf of the city. It also allows city attorneys to temporarily deputize any licensed Utah attorney in good standing with the State Bar for a specific, limited purpose or time period to assist with those same duties.
