Iowa Code § 252C.8: Temporary restraining order or bond.

If the department reasonably believes that the responsible person is not a resident of this state, is about to move from this state, or is concealing the responsible person’s whereabouts, or that the responsible person has removed or is about to remove, secrete, waste, or otherwise dispose of property which could be made subject to collection procedures to satisfy the support debt, the department may petition the district court for a temporary restraining order barring the removal, secretion, waste, or disposal. However, if the responsible person furnishes a bond satisfactory to the court, the temporary restraining order shall be vacated.
