State of Iowa v. Gregory Antwone Jackson

Summary

The Iowa Supreme Court held that the trial court preserved error on Jackson’s weight‑of‑evidence challenge and that the trial court erred by applying the sufficiency‑of‑evidence standard to a motion for new trial, requiring a weight‑of‑evidence analysis. The appellate decision was vacated, the convictions were conditionally affirmed, and the case was remanded for further proceedings.
