SALT LAKE CITY, Utah – The federal district court today granted a request by the Utah Attorney General’s Office to delay a hearing regarding the state’s anti-immigrant law. Utah requested the delay because of possible future involvement by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) in the lawsuit.
DOJ has not filed a lawsuit against Utah’s law, but has done
so with similar anti-immigrant laws in Arizona and Alabama. The hearing on
Utah’s law, HB 497, was originally set for Friday but has been rescheduled for
Nov. 18.
