>>Report: State's Legal System Lawsuit-Prone

(Salt Lake City, UT) -- Experts say Utah could be vulnerable to a lawsuit if state officials don't improve how they offer legal defenses to the underprivileged. The "Tribune" says if a lawsuit were filed it would likely allege a violation of the U.S. Constitution since the state has so far failed to fund a system for public defenders. That in turn leaves too few lawyers to handle the thousands of poor people who need public defense in Utah.

>>Motorcycle Rider Survives Weird Crash

(West Valley City, UT) -- A motorcyclist from West Valley City will live to tell the tale of a bizarre accident that has authorities scratching their heads.

It wasn't until minutes later when the driver of the truck finally stopped when he realized what had happened. The motorcycle rider is still being treated for multiple injuries including two broken arms.
