📜 Statutory Authority & Standard of Proof

Utah R. Jud. Admin. 4-202.04: Judicial records are presumed public unless classified as safeguarded or private. To unseal or disclose private health/toxicology records, the movant must demonstrate by a preponderance of the evidence that the interests favoring disclosure outweigh privacy harms, and that no less restrictive alternative satisfies the evidentiary necessity.

Custody Standard (Utah Code § 30-3-10): The best interests and safety of the child govern parental fitness inquiries, prioritizing verified physical safety over general celebrity or reputational confidentiality.
