UT SB0068

Creates a civil action allowing Utah residents and businesses sued for ADA website accessibility violations to challenge the lawsuit as "abusive" if the primary purpose was to obtain monetary payment rather than remedy the violation

Establishes a rebuttable presumption that a website access lawsuit is abusive if the defendant attempted in good faith to cure the violation within 30 days of written notice, or actually cured it within 90 days

Courts may award reasonable attorney fees, costs, punitive damages, and sanctions against plaintiffs who file abusive website access lawsuits, with punitive damages and sanctions capped at three times the attorney fee award

Factors for determining abuse include: number of similar lawsuits filed by the same plaintiff, whether the plaintiff filed in an inconvenient jurisdiction, and whether the plaintiff is a Utah resident or licensed attorney

Takes effect May 6, 2026, with provisions automatically repealing July 1, 2031
