Government Code (GC) section 19257 states that to be valid, a civil service appointment must be made and accepted in “good faith” under the civil service statutes and State Personnel Board (SPB) regulations. “Good faith” is defined as, having honest intentions or in compliance with standards of decency and honesty.

From a legal perspective, a contract is made when one party makes a valid offer and another party accepts that offer, and that can often be done verbally. However, Utah law requires that some types of agreements must be in writing.

Implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing (often simplified to good faith) is a rule used by most courts in the United States that requires every party in a contract to implement the agreement as intended, not using means to undercut the purpose of the transaction.

A violation of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing gives rise to a claim for breach of contract. Id. at 200; Beck, 701 P.2d at 798. You don't owe the other party your every thought or belief.
