Mother's Plea For Return of Child Denied

Linn District Judge Charles Penningroth denied Delores Boyce's habeas corpus petition seeking return of her son David Eugene Bowens, ruling the 12 year separation appropriate, noting the boy's stable Cedar Rapids home, school life, and limited contact with his mother who mostly lived in Florida and has an intended adoption by her husband. The decision assigns court costs half to each party and involves a $20 check issue. Foreclosure and judgment items follow, including other civil and default actions in Linn County.
