This Jackson Lewis LLP memorandum discusses the Iowa Supreme Court's decision in Koeppel v. Speirs, holding that an invasion-of-privacy claim can proceed even when the surveillance camera at issue did not actually record or view any images. The Iowa Supreme Court held that an intrusion occurs when the surveillance camera or other equipment could have invaded privacy in some way. The court further explained that the actual acquisition of information is not required to sustain an invasion-of-privacy claim, but that a finder of fact must conclude that the equipment could have been functional.
