DURHAM, Justice,
concurring:
I write separately to note that Justice Stewart’s dissent misreads the majority opinion in Sullivan v. Scoular Grain Company, 853 P.2d 877 (Utah 1993), when he claims that the court ignored legislative intent and “decided the issue on the basis of what it deemed to be good policy.” As the author of that opinion, I am not of the view that its result was necessarily “good policy”; I believed it to be dictated by the statutory scheme viewed in its entirety. Like Justice Stewart, I hope that the legislature will address the issue.
