The 26 current and former college student-athletes who filed a federal lawsuit against the Iowa Department of Public Safety and state officials over a warrantless search in a sports betting investigation, are asking a judge to delay ruling on a motion to dismiss from the Iowa Attorney General’s Office until they amend their lawsuit.
The athletes — mostly from the University of Iowa and Iowa State University — want to resolve the issues the defendants raised in their motion. They will drop the state; Iowa Department of Public Safety and Commissioner Stephan Bayens; Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation and Director Paul Feddersen from the suit.
