Court backs surname change in Iowa custody case
The Iowa Court of Appeals upheld a John son County decision to change the boy Tyler Waterbeck-Mason to Waterbeck-Mohr after his mother Jozlyn Mason married Dustin Mohr. The court said keeping Waterbeck preserves the father’s link, while Mohr ties the child to his mother and half siblings. The decision also denied Waterbeck’s challenge to the court’s authority. The ruling also notes Wax's 10 year sentence for theft and tax evasion, and Peterson's conviction in a 1997 stabbing, with rights considerations discussed.
