R.t. Nielson Company, a Utah Corporation, and v. Merrill Cook, an Individual, and Merrill Cook for Congress…
January 25, 2002439 Utah Adv. Rep. 32
Summary
The Utah Supreme Court affirmed the trial court's judgment, holding that the jury‑instruction issue was not preserved for appeal and that the award of attorney fees to R.T. Nielsen Company was proper. The court found the oral‑modification instruction consistent with Utah law, upheld the fee award as reasonable, and confirmed RTNC as the prevailing party. A concurrence joined the opinion without addressing a footnote issue. The court remanded for determination of the exact fee amount on appeal.
