Qualley v. State Federal Savings & Loan

SACKETT, Judge.

Plaintiff-appellant George T. Qualley, d/b/a Qualley & Associates, appeals from a trial court’s refusal to set aside a forfeiture of a real estate contract. Plaintiff, who was served with notice only by publication, contends the published notice of forfeiture was not sufficient because defendant did not make a diligent effort to locate him. Plaintiff also contends part of the land sold under the contract was Iowa agricultural land, and consequently there should have been mediation before forfeiture was commenced. We reverse and order the forfeiture set aside.
