Sarah Barke appeals the dismissal of her breach-of-contract claim against D&D Real Estate Holdings, LC based on D&D’s motion for summary judgment. OPINION HOLDS: We find D&D’s failure to renew a rental agreement does not constitute retaliatory action and Barke did not generate a jury question on her contract or Iowa Code section 562A.27B (2020) claims. We affirm.
