Utah Admin. Code R512-205-3 - Administrative Findings
(1) The commission
of acts of domestic violence in the presence of a child is child abuse, because
it results in non-accidental harm or threatened harm to the child. Such abuse
is subject to the reporting requirements in Section
62A-4a-403.
(2) Establishing the commission of an act of
domestic violence in the presence of a child shall be sufficient to establish
Domestic Violence Related Child Abuse, without any further evidence of
harm.
(3) The primary
responsibility to investigate allegations of Domestic Violence Related Child
Abuse as defined in Section
76-5-109.1 lies with law
enforcement, and Child and Family Services has no responsibility to investigate
domestic violence in the presence of a child as described in that section,
except as provided in this rule.
