Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Clay County, Don E. Courtney, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Mullins, P.J., and May and Schumacher, JJ. Opinion by Mullins, P.J. (7 pages)
Northwest Iowa Mental Health Center, d/b/a Seasons Center for Behavioral Health (Seasons), appeals the district court order granting summary judgment in favor of G. William Phelps. OPINION HOLDS: On our review of the record, the facts of this case reveal Phelps intended for the trade fixtures to be used in support of his dental practice. There are no facts showing he intended for the trade fixtures to become permanently affixed to the property. Because no genuine issue of material fact remains regarding whether the trade fixtures were permanently affixed to the property and should have remained, we agree with the district court’s order granting summary judgment in favor of Phelps.
