Iowa R. Elec. P. 16.609
Sanctions
If a filer incorrectly files documents containing unredacted protected
information, the court, upon its own motion or upon the motion of any party, may impose
sanctions. A sanction imposed under this rule must be limited to that which will deter repetition
of the conduct or comparable conduct by others. The sanction may include nonmonetary
directives or an order to pay a penalty into court. If a party is required to file a motion to address
a violation of division VI of this chapter, the court may award to the moving party reasonable
attorney’s fees and other expenses directly resulting from the violation.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
