SB134 (Court Amendments)
- Status: Enacted: Signed by governor
- Position: Oppose
- Bill Number: SB134
- Session: 2026 Legislative Session
- Latest Update: March 13, 2026
SB134 increases the number of justices on the Utah Supreme Court from five to seven, and the number of judges on the Court of Appeals from seven to nine. While a seemingly neutral change, the context and timing raise concerns that the catalyst is political rather than purely administrative, given the Court’s recent rulings against the Legislature in hot-topic cases on redistricting and gerrymandering, abortion, and public unions.
