The Complaint & Petition for Declaratory & Injunctive Relief was filed with this Court
Injunction and Memorandum of Points & Authorities in Support and Request for Expedited
Hearing was filed with this Court on Monday, August 3, 2020 by Plaintiff Summit County, who
moved the Court for a temporary restraining order against Defendant Town of Hideout. This
restraining order is GRANTED. The Court finds that Summit County’s reasoning merits a
favorable exercise of the Court’s discretion to preserve the status quo pending a final
determination of rights of the parties, consistent with sound equitable principles, taking into
account all facts and circumstances of the case. See Kasco Services Corp. v. Benson, 831 P.2d
86, 90 (Utah 1992). The Court is persuaded by Summit County’s arguments that: (1) Summit
County will suffer irreparable harm if the status quo is not maintained during the litigation; (2)
the threatened injury to Summit County outweighs the damage the proposed temporary
restraining order may cause Defendant Town of Hideout; (3) a temporary restraining order is in
the public interest and would not be adverse to the public interest; (4) if Summit County’s
statements, presented to this Court by officers of the Court with a duty of candor to the Court, are
factually accurate, then there is a substantial likelihood of success upon the merits.
Pursuant to Rule 65A(b)(3), a hearing is scheduled for August 17, 2020 at 9:00 a.m. to
preliminary injunction. The hearing will be held via WebEx. All parties are instructed to
