Former Salt Lake County Recorder Gary Ott’s family settles up with his former fiancee. She got the house and says she’s not done.

The family of former Salt Lake County Recorder Gary Ott, who died after prolonged suffering from dementia that was unveiled before his death, has agreed to a settlement that will leave his house with the woman who was accused of keeping his condition a secret.

Ott died in October, amid a court case that may have determined whether his siblings or his former assistant and fiancee, Karmen Sanone, would get his entire estate. His death prevented a judge from ruling, and the parties agreed to terms in the ensuing estate case late last month.
