FAQ
Property is divided by the Utah courts during a divorce. Divorce laws in Utah state that marital property should be divided equitably. This means that a Utah court could decide that it is fair to split the marital property 50-50, or they may decide that one party deserves more than 50% of the property.
For long-term marriages, equitable may mean a 50-50 split, or the court may decide that it is fair to give one party more or less than 50% of the property. For short term marriages, the court may put the people back into the economic position they had before the marriage.
As the parties agree, but if they can't agree, the judge will apply this formula (sometimes called the Woodward formula): multiply one-half of the value of the account by the number of years the parties were married and divide by the number of years the employee has worked.

This means that a Utah court could decide that it is fair to split the marital property 50-50, or they may decide that one party deserves more than 50% of the property.
Infidelity rarely alters the outcome of a divorce in any significant way. However, when the court divides marital property and awards alimony, adultery may help tip the scales in favor of the non-offending party. Utah courts are instructed to consider all relevant facts and equitable circumstances.
With that said, the general rule, even for short-term marriages, is 50/50 division. However, in some very short-term marriages, the courts may put spouses back into the financial position they were in before the marriage – that is, each spouse gets the asset that belonged to him/her at the beginning of the marriage.
Utah follows the equitable property and debt distribution rule, in which marital property is distributed equitably and fairly. Though the marital property and marital debts may not necessarily be distributed on a 50/50 basis always, 50/50 is the general rule.
On paper, each share would entitle the owner to irrigate 1 acre with 4 acre-feet of water. Thus, each share represents 4 acre-feet of water. But if it is a drought year and the river is running low, each shareholder may not actually receive 4 acre-feet of water per share.
State statutes provide that all water is the property of the public. Rights to use water are administered through the Division of Water Rights. Much of the State of Utah is closed to new appropriations of water, so people proposing new projects may have to obtain existing rights and amend them for new developments.
Under Utah common law, shares of water stock are akin to real property. They are generally transferred as appurtenances to land, except when the transfer conflicts with the water company's articles of incorporation.
