Arson trial to begin in June

Court records show a West Des Moines bank will be allowed to participate in the civil arson trial of developer John Kline and his wife Michele. First Bank will be allowed to intervene after it purchased the Klines' interest in the outcome of the case at a sheriff's sale in January. American Family Mutual Insurance Co. says it shouldn't have to pay the Klines for the loss of their home or 1964 Chevrolet Corvette, claiming it was arson. The insurance company also asked for the return of a $600,000 payment already made to the Klines. The trial is scheduled to begin June 6. The fire is still under investigation.
