Hi can you tell me the difference between the two conflicting Utah laws below.
70C-2-201. Authorization to confess judgment prohibited.
A creditor or its successor in interest may not, directly or indirectly, take or receive from a debtor an obligation that constitutes or contains a cognovit or confession of judgment, warrant of attorney, or other waiver of the right to notice and the opportunity to be heard in the event of suit or process thereon. Enacted by Chapter 159, 1985 General Session
78B-5-205. Judgment by confession authorized.
A judgment by confession may be entered without action, either for money due or to become due or to secure any person against contingent liability on behalf of the defendant, or both, in the manner prescribed by law. The judgment may be entered in any court having jurisdiction for like amounts.
Renumbered and Amended by Chapter 3, 2008 General Session
