Court upholds Barbee kidnapping and robbery convictions
The Iowa Court of Appeals affirmed the kidnapping and robbery convictions of William H. Barbee Jr. in Sioux City, ruling security measures during trial did not prejudice the jury. Barbee, accused in a 1982 abduction, had been shackled after prior threats and prison incidents, with the court citing a valid security order.

Iowa Court of Appeals rules on profits and public notices
The Iowa Court of Appeals issued rulings on multiple cases. It denied a former Life Investors salesman post termination profits, held a Linn County bank liable for promissory notes as estate executor, upheld dismissal of a Social Security suit, sustained cutoffs of welfare benefits for job interviews, denied a new trial for a nude modeling theft case, and upheld a Tama County conviction for sex acts with a child noting delayed reporting may reflect fear or timidity.

Court limits restitution in fatal Pocahontas case
The Iowa Court of Appeals ruled it would be hardship for Roger Gene Van Hoff to repay $16 500 in court costs and attorney fees after his 1983 murder convictions. With $69.12 monthly income and debts of $32 000, repayment would take 93 years, so the court sent the case back to set a feasible amount.
