Utah Code Ann. § 76-7-325 (LEXIS L. Publg. 2001), “Notice to parent or guardian of minor requesting contraceptive -- Definition of contraceptives -- Penalty for violation,” stating “(1) Any person before providing contraceptives to a minor shall notify, whenever possible, the minor's parents or guardian of the service requested to be provided to such minor. Contraceptives shall be defined as appliances (including but not limited to intrauterine devices), drugs, or medicinal preparations intended or having special utility for prevention of conception. (2) Any person in violation of this section shall be guilty of a class C misdemeanor,” was ruled unconstitutional by Planned Parenthood Ass'n v. Matheson, 582 F. Supp. 1001, 1983 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 10330 (D. Utah 1983) with respect to its failure to “provide a procedure whereby a mature minor or a minor who can demonstrate that his or her best interests are contrary to parental notification can obtain contraceptives confidentially.” However, the court also noted that it “does not intend to imply by this decision that a law which provided a means for minors to demonstrate maturity or best interests contrary to parental involvement would be constitutional. All that the court has decided is that due to the failure to provide such a process, H.B. 343 goes beyond the constitutionally permissible point of regulating the right of minors to make independent decisions concerning whether to bear or to beget children.”
