Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Mills County, Richard H. Davidson, Judge. AFFIRMED. Heard by Bower, C.J., and Badding and Buller, JJ. Opinion by Badding, J. (13 pages)
The defendants appeal a jury verdict in favor of a former employee on his claims of disability discrimination and constructive discharge, arguing the district court abused its discretion in several pretrial evidentiary rulings on the parties’ motions in limine. OPINION HOLDS: On the claims where error was properly preserved for our review, we find no abuse of discretion and affirm the judgment for the employee.
