Iowa Ct. R. 12.21
Transfer from county of confinement
If the respondent is in custody in another
county prior to the hearing provided in Iowa Code section 229.12, respondent’s attorney may
request that the respondent be delivered to the county in which the hearing will be held prior
thereto in order to facilitate preparation by respondent’s attorney. Such requests should be
denied only if they are unreasonable and if the denial would not harm respondent’s interests
in representation by counsel. This rule is not intended to authorize permanent transfer of the
respondent to another facility without conformance to appropriate statutory procedures.
