URCP Rule 22 (Rules of Civil Procedure)

 

Rule 22. Interpleader.
Rule printed on June 3, 2023 at 7:33 am. Go to https://www.utcourts.gov/rules for current rules.
 

Persons having claims against the plaintiff may be joined as defendants and required to interplead when their claims are such that the plaintiff is or may be exposed to double or multiple liability. It is not ground for objecting to the joinder that the claims of the several claimants or the titles on which their claims depend do not have a common origin or are not identical but are adverse to and independent of one another, or that the plaintiff avers that he is not liable in whole or in part to any or all of the claimants. A defendant exposed to similar liability may obtain such interpleader by way of cross-claim or counterclaim. The provisions of this rule supplement and do not in any way limit the joinder of parties permitted in Rule 20.


The Utah State Courts mission is to provide the people an open, fair, efficient, and independent system for the advancement of justice under the law.
