犹他州最高法院大法官已辞职，此前当局正对其与一名参与选区重划诉讼的律师之间的涉嫌关系展开调查。
福克斯新闻数字频道获得了大法官戴安娜·哈根写给犹他州州长斯宾塞·考克斯的辞职信，信中她似乎提及了此次调查，以及此事给其亲友带来的影响。
“作为一名服务了26年的公职人员，我深知公共服务需要做出牺牲，”哈根写道。“为了享有担任公职、肩负公众信任的特权，我自愿接受了这些牺牲，在此岗位上我可以尽己所能维护法治，保护每一位犹他州民众的宪法权利。”

“我也明白，公职人员理应被施以更高标准，必须接受更严格的公众监督，同时让渡更多隐私，”她说道。“但我的家人和朋友并未选择公职生涯，他们不应被迫承受与我这段30年婚姻痛苦破裂相关的极端私密细节被公之于众的局面。”
犹他州法院行政办公室发言人表示，此次辞职即刻生效。
据当地媒体KSL报道，哈根的前夫指控其向一名曾协助挑战共和党主导的国会选区划分方案、保留了犹他州4个共和党国会席位的律师发送“不当”短信。哈根前夫的律师向首席大法官马修·杜兰德和司法行为委员会提交的诉状中提及的这名律师，正是曾代表进步派投票权组织参与此案的戴维·赖曼。

哈根与赖曼此前均否认了相关指控。
据KSL报道，司法行为委员会——其官网介绍为由多名州议员、法官和社会公众组成的独立机构——基于该诉状开展了初步调查，最终决定不再进一步追查此事。
犹他州最高法院今年4月代表哈根发表声明称，她针对前夫的指控采取了“及时、审慎且透明的应对措施”。
“我最后一次介入选区重划案件是在2024年10月，”哈根说道。“2025年5月，我主动回避了所有涉及赖曼先生的案件，该回避决定也在2025年9月15日法院就《妇女选民联盟》案作出的判决中有所体现。”
在辞职信中，哈根表示她本希望继续在法院任职。

“但我无法再继续履职，否则将牺牲我所关心之人的隐私与福祉，同时损害犹他州司法系统的有效运转与独立性，”她写道。
考克斯将负责任命哈根的继任者。福克斯新闻数字频道已联系州长办公室置评。

Utah Supreme Court justice resigns amid probe into alleged relationship with redistricting attorney

Diana Hagen’s ex-husband filed a complaint alleging she sent inappropriate texts to attorney David Reymann

A Utah Supreme Court justice has resigned amid a probe into an alleged relationship with an attorney who worked on a redistricting lawsuit.
Justice Diana Hagen appeared to reference the investigation and the toll it has taken on her loved ones in a resignation letter to Utah Gov. Spencer Cox, which was obtained by Fox News Digital.
“As a public servant for twenty-six years, I am keenly aware that public service requires sacrifice,” Hagen wrote. “I have willingly accepted those sacrifices for the privilege of holding a position of public trust, where I could do my part to uphold the rule of law and protect the constitutional rights of every Utahn.”

“I also understand that public officials are rightly held to a higher standard and must accept a greater degree of public scrutiny and diminished privacy,” she said. “But my family and friends did not choose public life. They do not deserve to have intensely personal details surrounding the painful dissolution of my thirty-year marriage subjected to public scrutiny.”
The resignation was effective immediately, a spokesperson for Utah’s Administrative Office of the Courts said.
Hagen was accused by her former husband of sending “inappropriate” text messages to an attorney who helped challenge a Republican-friendly map that maintained four red congressional seats in Utah. David Reymann, who worked on behalf of progressive voting rights groups in the case, was named as the lawyer in a complaint that an attorney for Hagen’s husband submitted to Chief Justice Matthew Durrant and the Judicial Conduct Commission, according to local outlet KSL.

Hagen and Reymann previously denied the allegations.
The Judicial Conduct Commission—described on its website as an independent body comprising several state lawmakers, judges, and members of the public—conducted a preliminary investigation based on the complaint and chose not to pursue the matter further, KSL reported.
A statement issued by the Utah Supreme Court on behalf of Hagen in April said she took “prompt, prudent, and transparent steps” in response to the allegations by her ex-husband.
“My last involvement in the redistricting case was October 2024,” Hagen said. “I voluntarily recused myself from all cases involving Mr. Reymann in May 2025, and my recusal was reflected in the Court’s September 15, 2025, opinion in League of Women Voters.”
In her resignation letter, Hagen stated that she would love to continue serving on the bench.

“But I cannot do so without sacrificing the privacy and well-being of those I care about and the effective functioning and independence of Utah’s judiciary,” she wrote.
Cox will be tasked with naming Hagen’s replacement. Fox News Digital has reached out to the governor’s office.
