Hawkeye Protests TouchPlay Ban Ruling In Iowa Federal Case
Hawkeye Commodity Promotions sued in Cedar Rapids federal court over the TouchPlay ban arguing property seizures and due process violations. Judge Reade ruled the ban permissible, noting licenses can be terminated and machines still hold value for sale or reconfiguration. The decision narrows compensation claims and underscores legislative authority in regulating gaming. The case impacts 6432 non-state TouchPlay machines licensed to retailers including Hawkeye.

Schools like Linn-Mar and City High experiment with CD ROM and DVD versions, but the rep doubts electronic yearbooks will replace print, citing shelf life and autograph limits.
