In what has become a closely watched case in the real estate and construction fields, the Iowa Supreme Court has granted further review of a recent decision of the Iowa Court of Appeals. The Court of Appeal’s decision affirmed the finding that the homestead right could be a defense to certain aspects of a mechanic’s lien claim.
