“Washington • Several Utah business owners say they plan to sue Gov. Gary Herbert, Lt. Gov. Spencer Cox and other officials over their decisions to close businesses amid the coronavirus outbreak, a move the plaintiffs and their attorneys say left small shops “devastated” and violated their constitutional rights.”
