Lawmaker Jay suspended for year over estate handling
Iowa Supreme Court fined former House Judiciary chair Daniel Jay one year for ethical violations in administering his uncle Russell Jay’s estate. The Centerville lawyer collected fees early, filed late inventories, and failed to refund fees after being removed as executor. Jay, a former Democrat legislator, had prior disciplinary actions including a 60 day suspension in 1988 and a 1991 reprimand. He also delayed delivering records and misrepresented estate matters in court.
