4:23 P.M. IOWA SUPREME COURT EXTENDS TRIAL POSTPONEMENTThe Iowa Supreme Court this week further postponed criminal and civil trials to avoid large groups of people gathered in Iowa courthouses during the COVID-19 outbreak. Nonjury trials will be bumped back to June 1 or later. Jury trials may not be scheduled earlier than July 13, giving priority to cases in which a defendant has not waived his right to a speedy trial, according to the order released Thursday.
