In re Prop. Seized from Behmer, No. 6-210 / 04-0936, COURT OF APPEALS OF IOWA, May 10, 2006, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: Because appellant did not establish or even claim ownership of cash that was seized by police, and he did not follow the statutory mandates of a claimant under Iowa Code § 809A.11, his assertion of a claim to the seized cash failed. Moreover, substantial evidence supported that the forfeited cash was proceeds from illegal activity.

In the Interest of D.J.G., No. 6-336/06-0413, COURT OF APPEALS OF IOWA, May 10, 2006, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: Trial court did not err in not granting father an additional six-month period to reunify with his child pursuant to Iowa Code § 232.104(2)(b) before terminating his parental rights where the father had exercised minimal visitation with his child and never served as his caretaker. A hair test also revealed the presence of cocaine in father's system.
