View this case - free  

Overview: In a sexual abuse case, a trial court did not err by imposing a five-year no-contact order under Iowa Code § 901.5(7A) for crimes that occurred prior to its enactment. Although this restricted defendant's freedom of movement, § 901.5(7A) and Iowa Code § 709.20 were civil in nature, so no ex post facto violation occurred.
