DOUGHERTY v. STATE

No. 67339.

323 N.W.2d 249 (1982)

Richard A. DOUGHERTY, Appellant, v. STATE of Iowa, Appellee.

Supreme Court of Iowa.

August 25, 1982.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Mark H. Rettig of Hines, Pence, Day & Powers, Cedar Rapids, for appellant.

Thomas J. Miller, Atty. Gen., Mary Jane Blink, Asst. Atty. Gen., and Eugene J. Kopecky, Linn County Atty., for appellee.

Considered by REYNOLDSON, C. J., and HARRIS, McCORMICK, SCHULTZ and LARSON, JJ.

McCORMICK, Justice.

The question here is whether a revocation of a Code chapter 247A work release can be challenged by a postconviction action under chapter 663A. The postconviction court sustained the State's motion to dismiss Richard A. Dougherty's application for postconviction relief on the ground the Iowa Administrative Procedure Act (IAPA) provides the exclusive method for attacking the revocation. We affirm.
