LaRose v. Curoe

Supreme Court of Iowa

Decided December 21, 1983No. 69629PublishedCited by 2 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

LARSON, Justice.

A summary judgment was entered against defendant Curoe, based upon two promissory notes payable to the plaintiff LaRose. On appeal, Curoe contends the district court erred initially in overruling his special appearance, which had asserted his immunity from service of original notice, and then in granting summary judgment in favor of the plaintiff. We conclude the court lacked personal jurisdiction and reverse and remand for entry of an order sustaining the special appearance. Under this disposition, it is unnecessary to address the summary judgment issue.
