Can I withhold rent in Utah

By joe hale

I was told that I cannot withhold rent because I have caused other damage to the house I rent that Ihave not fixed. I was also told I could not withhold rent because I did not notify the landlord in wrting of a leaking faucet under the tub and the landlord didn’t have access to the house because I lost the keys to the house after I changed the locks without his permission. Does that mean I cannot withhold rent when a disaster crew had to come in and re-build the bathroom? He’s really mad because he has to use his insurance to fix the bathroom. And can he get late payments from me for this? So where can I go to get codes for Utah law for this? I was told by someones lawyer girlfriend that I could withhold the rent, but the very few articles I have read, utah is a state where you cannot withhold the rent. I feel I am in trouble here, can anyone tell me what the law is?
