Ray signals possible veto on judicial reform bill
DES MOINES The Iowa House plan to keep justice of the peace courts in the state system drew Gov. Robert Ray’s ire at a Monday news conference. He warned it could mislead the public into thinking real court reform is occurring. He suggested he might veto the bill if sent in its House form, while preferring the Senate version that preserves municipal courts but drops justice and police courts. The unified court proposal was among Ray’s 25 legislative program items, which he said he is disappointed the House will not salvage some elements of.
