On 06/22/2010, the Utah Supreme Court reminded state agencies about the rulemaking requirements found in Section 46-4-501. In Anderson v. Bell, the Court said:
The rulemaking requirement is critical; the statute does not authorize government agencies to make informal decisions on what type of transactions cannot be supported by electronic signatures outside of the rulemaking process of Title 63G.
Anderson v. Bell, 2010 UT 47, ¶ 23.
