Wood v. Iowa State Commerce Commission

Supreme Court of Iowa

1Opinion of the CourtGarfield, C. J.

The question presented is whether defendant Iowa State Commerce Commission acted illegally, within the meaning of rule 306, Rules of Civil Procedure, in revoking an Iowa contract carrier permit defendant issued to plaintiff under chapter 327, Code, 1958. This in turn depends mainly upon whether there was substantial evidence before the commission to sustain its order. The trial court held there was and upheld the order. Plaintiff has appealed. We affirm the trial court.

(For convenience we disregard the fact the members of the commerce commission are also made defendants.)
