A first court appearance date is set for a Council Grove attorney accused of using a semi as a weapon in an incident that’s now two years old.
The hearing for Steven Iverson is set to begin at 9:30 am Monday in Morris County District Court. Judge Margaret White will preside.
Iverson, the owner of Iverson Law Office in Council Grove, is charged with two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, separate counts of felony interference with law enforcement and the judicial process, misdemeanor witness intimidation and reckless driving. The incident allegedly took place in late July 2020.
Iverson’s case has a Lyon County component with Assistant Lyon County Attorney Ashley McGee serving as special prosecutor.
Meanwhile, Iverson has a hearing Oct. 3 in Lyon County District Court after Iverson finalized legal counsel through Cavanaugh, Biggs & Lemon out of Topeka. Iverson is charged with driving under the influence in that case from June 2020.
