DECEMBER 15, 2000 A Utah judge on Thursday said he will give the state of Utah more time to prepare its case in a lawsuit filed against a new "English-only" law. Several officials filed a lawsuit against the state, contending it is unconstitutional. But while the Attorney General's office is required to defend the state, another attorney in the office is supporting the position that it is unlawful. As a result, the judge may allow Utahns for Official English, the group which pushed for passage of the law, to intervene in the lawsuit and actively defend it. The state would still remain on as a defendant, however. Get the Story:
