The central issue was whether the Director of Airports had the authority under Ordinance 70909 to unilaterally terminate the lease. The appellate court affirmed the summary judgment on the merits of the Director's authority, finding the ordinance's plain language granted such power. However, the court dismissed Appellants' remaining points on appeal due to noncompliance with Rule 84.04 briefing requirements.","primaryTopic":"administrative-law","topicSlugs":["administrative-law","civil-procedure","summary-judgment","appellate-procedure","contracts"],"outcomeNorm":"affirmed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=211078","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/bi-national-gateway-terminal-llc-et-al-appellants-v-the-city-of-st-louis-112575","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"corporate","label":"Corporate Law","href":"/practice-areas/corporate","score":16,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: contracts","text: llc"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/corporate"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":16,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: civil-procedure","topic: summary-judgment","topic: appellate-procedure","text: summary judgment"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"},{"slug":"real-estate","label":"Real Estate","href":"/practice-areas/real-estate","score":4,"source":"text","evidence":["text: lease"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/real-estate"}],"role":"appellant"}]}
