SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — A judge slapped an injunction Monday on a Utah law that sought to limit the police powers of the U.S. Forest Service and other federal land-management agencies.

The law had been set to take effect Tuesday. State officials say they’re trying to stop federal officers from citing people for driving violations on and off federal lands. Defendants have to travel long distances to a federal court and pay hefty fines to settle violations, they say.
