Iowa Supreme Court upholds railroads flood suit ruling
The Iowa Supreme Court ruled federal law preempts state claims in a 2013 class action over the 2008 Cedar Rapids flood. Plaintiffs sought about 6 billion dollars, alleging railcars on the CRANDIC bridge worsened flooding near Penford Products. The decision means state law claims are barred, with no relief for the property owners.
