Appeals Court Rules Raymon Breach Claims Do Not Halt Foreclosure
The Iowa Court of Appeals ruled 3-0 that Richard D. Raymon’s breach of contract claims against Norwest Bank cannot overturn a Linn County mortgage foreclosure judgment. The court said Raymon’s claims were compulsory prior to Norwest Bank suing for foreclosure and contract payments, and that the tortious interference claim offered only a new theory on the same case.
