In re E.M.
In re E.M., 2025 UT 8 (Durrant, C.J.)
Criminal Law
The Utah Supreme Court held:
- The juvenile court did not abuse its discretion when it transferred E.M.’s case to the district court because the juvenile court’s analysis regarding the retention factors in Utah Code section 80-6-504 is meant to be a holistic evaluation.
- Practice tip: Abuse of discretion is the appropriate standard of review for whether the juvenile court properly applied the current version of Utah Code sections 80-6-503 and -504.
