fiduciary duties

Utah Supreme Court vacates emotional damages award in legal malpractice case.

In the last seven days, the Utah supreme Court holds escrow agents owe fiduciary duties to third party beneficiaries; that title companies are liable in many instances when escrow agents improperly disburse funds; that district court judges can serve as both magistrates and judges in the same case; that Utah’s civil case arbitration statute provides the sole means to rescind the decision to arbitrate, but, does not apply to claims that can be brought as a different suit; that post-conviction relief statutes apply to all proceedings before a trail court not just formal trial claims; affirmed discovery sanction default judgment; and reminds lawyers that stealing client funds will result in disbarment.
