Mukanjiri appealed, arguing the trial court erred by denying her request for juror note-taking. Blue KC cross-appealed the denial of its motion for attorney's fees. The appellate court affirmed the judgment against Mukanjiri, finding she failed to preserve her claim of error. Blue KC's appeal was dismissed for lack of a final judgment, as the order denying fees was not properly denominated a \"judgment\" under Rule 74.01(a).","primaryTopic":"appellate-procedure","topicSlugs":["appellate-procedure","civil-procedure","employment-law","jury-instructions"],"outcomeNorm":"mixed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=221954","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/dorothy-mukanjiri-v-blue-cross-blue-shield-of-kansas-city-d86748","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"employment","label":"Employment Law","href":"/practice-areas/employment","score":32,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: employment","topic: employment-law"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/employment"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: civil-procedure","topic: jury-instructions","topic: appellate-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"respondent"}]}
