Cedar City v. Braget
Cedar City v. Braget, 2025 UT App 39 (Luthy, J.)
Criminal
The Utah Court of Appeals held:
- Defendant’s plain error claims failed because the claimed errors—(1) failure to discuss with Defendant on the record whether she was knowingly waiving her right to be present at trial and (2) failure to receive an explicit waiver of Defendant’s right to confrontation—would not have been obvious to the district court.
- Defendant’s ineffective assistance of counsel claims failed.
- Defendant failed to meet her rule 23B burden.
