Supreme Court of Iowa November 23, 1983, 69569 (Schmidt v. Wilkinson)

McGIVERIN, Justice.

The sole issue presented by this appeal is whether the trial court erred in granting defendants’ motion to dismiss for plaintiffs’ alleged failure to properly plead an abuse of process claim. We conclude that plaintiffs’ petition sufficiently stated an abuse of process claim in compliance with the “notice pleading” requirements of Iowa R.Civ.P. 69(a).
