The full story

Utah County Recorder Nina B. Reid told commissioners the Recorder’s Office faces exposure to lawsuits from recording errors and requested that the county consider procuring "errors and omissions" insurance to protect the office. Reid said Salt Lake County had been sued for $1,000,000 over an error and that current county insurance policies did not cover this risk; she reported Lloyd’s of London as one carrier that might provide a policy and noted Weber County carried a $150,000 policy.
