Rule 2-209 Suspension of procedures

When something urgent comes up, the Utah Judicial Council doesn't always have to follow its normal steps for reviewing or approving rules and resolutions. If most of the council members present agree that skipping the usual process is best for the court system, they can vote to set those steps aside.

This rule applies to all of the council's other rules. It exists so the council isn't stuck following lengthy procedures when a fast decision is needed. Basically, it gives the council a way to act quickly in urgent situations, as long as enough members agree it's the right thing to do.
