: The Corridor Law BlogIowa Supreme Court Opinions
By esittig
The Iowa Supreme Court last week issued opinions in three new cases. Below are the keys to remember from each.
1. Iowa Supreme Court Attorney Disciplinary Board v. Adams: Depression and migraine headaches can be a mitigating factor in lawyer discipline issues, but only if the attorney suffered from them when the misconduct occurred, and only if the attorney asked for help from someone else while suffering from them.
2. Barry C. Simpson, et al. v. Luke Kollasch, et al.: Hog confinement buildings produce odors, but it’s impossible to tell if they will constitute nuisances until they are built and operating.
3. Iowa Supreme Court Attorney Disciplinary Board v. Weaver: Don’t run your mouth to a newspaper reporter about the ethics of a judge unless it’s impossible to prove the truth or falsity of what your saying.
Certainly I make light of these opinions to some extent. But where’s the fun in talking about them if you can’t take a few liberties here and there?
