Supreme Court of Iowa May 1, 2009, 07-1617 (State v. Reynolds)

WIGGINS, Justice

(specially concurring).

I write to concur in the result reached by the majority in this case. We apply a two-part test to determine if other acts are admissible under Iowa Rule of Evidence 5.404(&). The court must first decide whether the other-acts evidence is relevant to a legitimate factual issue in dispute other than a general propensity to commit wrongful acts. State v.
