No. 97-232.

584 N.W.2d 303 (1998)

W.M. PETTY, Appellee, v. FAITH BIBLE CHRISTIAN OUTREACH CENTER, INC. a/k/a Faith Bible Christian Outreach Center, Appellant.

Supreme Court of Iowa.

September 23, 1998.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Robert Kohorst of the Kohorst Law Firm, Harlan, for appellant.

Chad McShane of Crary, Huff, Inkster, Hecht & Sheehan, P.C., Sioux City, for appellee.

Considered by McGIVERIN, C.J., and HARRIS, CARTER, SNELL, and ANDREASEN, JJ.


ANDREASEN, Justice.

On appeal from an adverse judgment in a forcible entry and detainer (FED) action, a tenant claims its lease was automatically renewed and the action was barred by its thirty-days' peaceable possession after the expiration of the lease. We affirm the lower courts' findings that the lease was not automatically renewed but conclude the FED action was barred under Iowa Code section 648.18 (1995).
