IN THE COURT OF APPEALS OF IOWA No. 3-383 / 12-1971 Filed May 15, 2013 JOANN E. WILCH, As Executor of the Estate of John P. Wilch, and Individually, JOHN WILCH JR., PETER WILCH, EDIE WILCH, MATTHEW WILCH, MARK WILCH, PATRICK WILCH, DANIEL WILCH, and THOMAS WILCH, Plaintiffs-Appellees, vs. RICHARD JAMES KEPROS, Defendant-Appellant. ________________________________________________________________ Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Linn County, Mitchell E. Turner, Judge. A defendant appeals a jury s verdict finding him to be liable for a motor vehicle accident. AFFIRMED. Michael W. Fay, Cedar Rapids, for appellant. James E. Shipman of Simmons Perrine Moyer Bergman, P.L.C., Cedar Rapids, and Jeffrey K. McGinness of McGinness Law Firm, P.L.C., Iowa City, for appellees. Considered by Doyle, P.J., and Danilson and Mullins, JJ. 2 MULLINS, J. Richard Kepros appeals from an adverse jury verdict finding liability and awarding damages against him arising out of a motor vehicle collision while he was driving a tractor. Kepros s entire argument portion of his brief is three sentences long, claiming error in the jury s finding of liability and assessment of damages, and the district court s denial of his trial motions and posttrial motions. The argument contains no citations to authorities and no references to the pertinent parts of the record. Consequently, Kepros has waived all issues. See Iowa R. App. P. 6.903(2)(g)(3); Hyler v. Garner, 548 N.W.2d 864, 876 (Iowa 1996) ( We will not speculate on the arguments [the appellant] might have made and then search for legal authority and comb the record for facts to support such arguments. ). We affirm the verdict and rulings of the district court pursuant to Iowa Rule of Appellate Procedure 6.1203(a) and (d). AFFIRMED.
