Utah lawmakers pause efforts to increase public say in judge retention, citing judicial independence concerns.
Utah lawmakers have decided to pause efforts to give the public more say in retaining judges, following concerns about judicial independence.

Instead, the legislature will work with the judiciary to improve the system.
A Senate bill, however, has advanced, which would allow the governor to appoint the Utah Supreme Court Chief Justice, with Senate confirmation.
