Parent-time and Custody Amendments

Maddy summarySB 208 updates Utah's custody and parent-time laws to better support children and families. It prevents courts from requiring parents who relocated due to domestic violence to share their new address, adds Juneteenth to parent-time schedules (coordinating with another bill), and removes Columbus Day/Veterans Day from holiday schedules. The bill also mandates that summer parent-time periods must be consecutive and clarifies rules for scheduling consistency around holidays like Mother's and Father's Day. These changes apply directly to parents, children, and courts handling custody disputes in Utah.

Landscaping Procurement Amendments

Maddy summarySB 124 requires Utah state agencies to procure only electric-powered landscape maintenance equipment (like mowers or trimmers) for use at state facilities located in counties with 200,000+ residents as of 2020, provided the facility needs less than 50,000 square feet of landscaping. The law defines key terms like "landscape maintenance equipment" and specifies exemptions for terrain challenges (e.g., steep slopes) or emergencies where electric equipment is impractical. This applies directly to state government facilities meeting the population and size criteria, effective May 2025. The bill contains no funding changes or additional requirements beyond these procurement conditions.

Workers' Compensation Amendments

Maddy summaryHB 111 clarifies when an individual with a disability is considered the employer of someone providing home and community-based services under Utah's workers' compensation law. It specifically defines the circumstances under which a person receiving care (like a home health aide) would be treated as an employer for workers' compensation purposes. The bill makes technical changes to Section 34A-2-103 of the Utah Code to ensure proper coverage for workers in these arrangements. This directly affects individuals with disabilities who employ personal care providers in their homes. The bill does not appropriate funds or change existing insurance requirements.

Justice Court Jurisdiction

Maddy summaryThis bill updates the rules for Utah justice courts, which handle minor criminal offenses and small claims cases. It clarifies which specific traffic and wildlife violations can be tried in justice courts versus district or juvenile courts, particularly for minors and high school students. The legislation also establishes clear guidelines for determining where a crime occurred based on the location of the act, the victim, or the property involved. Additionally, it creates a formal process allowing prosecutors to transfer domestic violence cases from justice courts to district courts while ensuring victims are notified about the transfer.
