Yes, Utah is a one-party consent state, which means that before recording a phone conversation in Utah, one of the participants must consent to the recording. This consent can be expressed by the person recording the conversation or inferred from the circumstances. Additionally, there are exceptions to the one-party consent requirement in Utah, such as when a person is acting under color of law, that is, they have been granted authority by a federal, state, or local agency, and that person or the party involved has given prior consent to the recording.
