State v. Murphy
State v. Murphy, 2026 UT App 38 (Mortensen, J.)
Criminal Law
The Utah Court of Appeals held:

- Practice tip: When evidence so internally contradictory that it does not provide probable cause that a defendant committed a crime, it is within a magistrate’s limited discretion to decline bindover.
