Ayala v. Unified Police Dept. and Mauger v. Unified Police Dept.
Ayala v. Unified Police Dept. and Mauger v. Unified Police Dept., 2026 UT App 139 (Oliver, J.)
Civil Law
The Utah Court of Appeals held, in a consolidated opinion, that:
The district court erred by granting summary judgment to Unified PD because there were multiple disputes of material facts regarding Unified PD’s governmental immunity defense.
Practice tip:
The failure to show that an officer’s lights or siren was adequate under the governing statute is fatal to a motion for summary judgment.
