Abdelgader v. UDOT, 2026 UT App 50 (Christiansen Forster, J.)
CIVIL PROCEDURE/STATUTORY INTERPRETATION
The Utah Court of Appeals held:
The district court correctly granted summary judgment to UDOT because it was entitled to immunity under Utah’s Governmental Immunity Act.
Practice tip:
As long as a highway’s design meets basic safety standards, UDOT’s decisions regarding inclusion of additional safety features are discretionary decisions entitled to immunity.
