Terms Used In Utah Code 78B-10a-103

  • Damages: Money paid by defendants to successful plaintiffs in civil cases to compensate the plaintiffs for their injuries.
  • Trial: A hearing that takes place when the defendant pleads "not guilty" and witnesses are required to come to court to give evidence.

     A claim for punitive damages may not be made in an arbitration proceeding in accordance with this chapter or any subsequent proceeding, even if the claim is later resolved through a trial de novo in accordance with Section 78B-10a-108.
