Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Pottawattamie County, Jeffrey L. Larson, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Vogel, C.J., and Vaitheswaran and Mullins, JJ. Opinion by Vaitheswaran, J. (7 pages)
The Hemmingsens appeal the district court’s grant of summary judgment in favor of the Mings, contending the court erred in concluding their claim could have been fully and fairly adjudicated in a prior action. OPINION HOLDS: We conclude the doctrine of claim preclusion bars the present action, and we affirm the district court’s ruling.
