Utah: Judge says suit over mall shooting gun sale can go on: "A state judge on Monday said a pawnshop owner will face a civil trial over whether a gun used in a Utah mall shooting that killed five people was sold illegally. Third District Judge Glenn K. Iwasaki in Salt Lake City said in a statement that disputed facts on whether the gun was intended to be used as a shotgun will move the case to a jury trial. Both sides said they expect the case to go to trial next year. Talovic, a Bosnian immigrant, was 18 when he bought the gun. He died in a shootout with police after opening fire in the mall. The pawnshop's lawyers argued at a Feb. 14 hearing that the case should be dismissed. Mike Hansen, an attorney for Rocky Mountain Enterprises, also known as Sportsman's Fast Cash, said the gun was sold legally because it was a shotgun and there was no way to foresee what Talovic would do after he purchased the gun."
