No. 02-1322.

671 N.W.2d 466 (2003)

In re the NAME CHANGE OF Logan Jon REINDL, a Minor Child. Jessica Lynn Benjegerdes, Appellant, v. Joshua Reindl, Appellee.

Supreme Court of Iowa.

November 13, 2003.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Michael G. Byrne of Winston & Byrne, P.C., Mason City, for appellant.

Douglas Krull, Northwood, for appellee.

TERNUS, Justice.

The appellant, Jessica Benjegerdes, appeals the district court's denial of her request to change the surname of her minor child, Logan Reindl. The trial court refused to order the name change because the biological father of the child, appellee, Joshua Reindl, objected. Because we conclude that Joshua's consent is not required under Iowa Code section 674.6 (2001), we reverse.
