Iowa Original Notice By Publication is a type of legal notice that is published in a newspaper in order to alert a person who is not easily located, such as a debtor, that they must appear in court. The notice is typically published once a week for four consecutive weeks, and it informs the person of the court date, time, and location of the proceedings. It also includes the name of the court, the case number, and a brief description of the claim. There are two types of Iowa Original Notice By Publication: a Notice to Appear and a Notice of Judgment. A Notice to Appear is used when a person must appear in court to answer a complaint or summons. A Notice of Judgment is used when a judgment has already been entered against the person and the court is attempting to recover the money.
