Terms Used In Iowa Code 306.36

  • Appeal: A request made after a trial, asking another court (usually the court of appeals) to decide whether the trial was conducted properly. To make such a request is "to appeal" or "to take an appeal." One who appeals is called the appellant.
  • Damages: Money paid by defendants to successful plaintiffs in civil cases to compensate the plaintiffs for their injuries.
 If, in the opinion of the board of supervisors, the damages as finally determined on appeal are excessive, the board may rescind its order establishing such change.
