HF 2058 Iowa House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A bill for an act relating to the Iowa rules of criminal procedure, including subpoenas issued to law enforcement officers.

HF 2058 requires Iowa's Supreme Court to revise criminal procedure rules so that subpoenas for law enforcement officers to testify must include specific details: arrest time/date, citation number, case number, defendant's name, charges, and trial location/time. It also mandates that officers receive at least 30 days' notice before trial. This directly affects law enforcement officers who receive such subpoenas by providing clearer information and more preparation time. The revised rules must be submitted for review by October 14, 2026. The bill focuses on procedural transparency in criminal court proceedings.
