ESTATE OF Raymond J. MORGAN, Deceased, Appellant, v. NORTH STAR STEEL COMPANY, Appellee.

Supreme Court of Iowa.

May 13, 1992.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

David Scieszinski, Wilton, for appellant.

Iris E. Muchmore and Matthew J. Petrzelka of Simmons, Perrine, Albright & Ellwood, Cedar Rapids, for appellee.

Considered by HARRIS, P.J., and LARSON, LAVORATO, SNELL, and ANDREASEN, JJ.


LARSON, Justice.

The court of appeals dismissed this appeal, for lack of jurisdiction, on the ground that a motion for enlargement of findings and conclusions under Iowa Rule of Civil Procedure 179(b) had not been filed within ten days of the court's order and therefore could not extend the thirty-day time for appeal under Iowa Rule of Appellate Procedure 5(a). We vacate the court of appeals decision, reverse the district court, and remand.
