STATE v. McKINNEY

No. 06-0775.

743 N.W.2d 550 (2008)

STATE of Iowa, Appellee, v. Nathanial Paul McKINNEY, Appellant.

Supreme Court of Iowa.

January 11, 2008.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Mark C. Smith, State Appellate Defender, and Stephan J. Japuntich, Assistant State Appellate Defender, for appellant.

Thomas J. Miller, Attorney General, Kevin Cmelik, Assistant Attorney General, and Kasey E. Wadding, County Attorney, for appellee.


WIGGINS, Justice.

In this appeal, Nathanial P. McKinney requests us to review the district court's order fixing his material witness fee at $40 for each day he was confined. Because we find the amount of McKinney's fee did not constitute involuntary servitude under the United States and Iowa Constitutions, and the district court did not abuse its discretion when it set the amount of the fee, we annul the writ of certiorari.
