Heading: Location of the Statute Granting Immunity.

Text: Finally, we consider the personal representative's argument that, if the legislature had intended to grant immunity to the State with respect to the activities causing her decedent's death, it would have inserted the grant of immunity in Iowa Code section 669.14, the location where other immunities of the state are contained. We must reject that contention. As we recognized in Waterloo Community School District v. PERB, 650 N.W.2d 627 (Iowa 2002), [i]f [the statutes] mean what the district court found that they mean it matters not where they are located in the Code or that they express the intended result in words differing from those used elsewhere to describe the same subject matter. Waterloo Cmty. Sch. Dist., 650 N.W.2d at 632. We have considered all issues presented and conclude that the judgment of the district court should be affirmed. AFFIRMED.
