Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Paige Fiedler of Fiedler & Townsend, P.L.C., Johnston, for appellant.

CADY, Justice.

Julie DeVall McElroy appeals from a jury verdict denying her claim for sexual harassment against the State of Iowa and Iowa State University. She asserts the district court abused its discretion in permitting the defendants to file an untimely answer, improperly excluded evidence as inadmissible hearsay, and erroneously instructed the jury on the elements of sexual harassment. We reverse and remand for a new trial.
