1Opinion of the Court

CADY, Justice.

In this action by the assignee of a certificate of purchase of real estate against a county and county treasurer, we must decide if Iowa Code section 448.10 (1995) authorizes a claim for damages when the description of the parcel used by the county treasurer to sell the real estate and assign the certificate of purchase failed to exclude a platted subdivision located within the parcel. On review, we conclude the assignee has no cause of action, and affirm the decision of the district court.
