Historical
note
|
|
The Polk County
Equity Circuit Court most often dealt with civil, not criminal,
complaints and was meant to fairly handle the legal grievances that
were held by citizens of the county. These civil claims of
individuals parties, reflecting the depressed agricultural
conditions of the time, often dealt with money owed, debts,
foreclosure, garnishee, and promissory notes. There are also
disputes concerning land, mechanics liens, personal property damage
or theft, railroad and mine accidents, and claims against the City
of Des Moines. |
