Terms Used In Iowa Code 441.44
- 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.
- property: includes personal and real property. See Iowa Code 4.1
- Settlement: Parties to a lawsuit resolve their difference without having a trial. Settlements often involve the payment of compensation by one party in satisfaction of the other party's claims.
2. A voluntary court settlement of an assessment appeal shall not be valid unless written notice of the settlement shall first be served upon each of the affected taxing districts.
