The governor’s ban on evictions and foreclosures brought on by the coronavirus has now expired.  Iowa Legal Aid Litigation Director Alex Kornya says the court system isn’t fully open yet — so most eviction hearings will still be delayed. But landlords will be able to terminate leases for tenants who have not paid rent or broken terms of the lease.

Governor Kim Reynolds says she’s establishing a new fund to prevent some evictions and foreclosures, but hasn’t shared details yet.
