Reeves Wins as Supreme Court Rules on Co operative Monopoly
The Iowa Supreme Court upheld Judge Hobson in Henry Reeves versus Decorah Farmers Cooperative Society. It ruled that requiring members to return five cents per hundred pounds for hogs sold to Reeves or overbid penalties constitutes monopoly and violates public policy. Des Moines Register & Leader notes co operatives binding members to transact through a society are illegal, and the decision may impact similar associations statewide. The ruling allows the coop to continue by removing binding by law clauses and over bid penalties.
