Opinion on Council Duty to Pay Legal Costs in Iowa

Des Moines AP reports State Auditor Lloyd Smith asks for a clarifying opinion from Attorney General Turner on whether the Iowa executive council must pay court costs and related fees from unappropriated funds or from an office budget. Turner notes the issue stems from a pre 1971 law and a 1974 change, with governors and officials debating who bears travel and personal expenses versus court costs. The disagreement centers on statutory language may versus shall and the funding source for such costs, with Turner defending the old rule and arguing the council should follow prior practice.
