2017For his first claim on appeal, Colton asserts the district court committed reversible error when it excluded his photographs and the testimony of four of his witnesses for failing to disclose this evidence during discovery. 3 He claims the court should have considered the four factors outlined in Lawson v. Kurtzhals, 792 N.W.2d 251, 259 (Iowa 2010), before excluding the evidence, and the failure to consider those factors amounts to an abuse of discretion.
