The trial court dismissed Count V for failure to state a claim. The appellate court affirmed the dismissal as to the Trustee, as that issue was not appealed. However, the court reversed the dismissal as to the Subdivision Owners and Benefitted Owners, holding that a prior written agreement or covenant only precludes a statutory action if it collectively affects all landowners benefitting from the private road, and remanded for further proceedings.","primaryTopic":"property-real-estate","topicSlugs":["property-real-estate","civil-procedure","appellate-procedure","other"],"outcomeNorm":"unknown","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=170095","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/david-maue-appellant-v-fiedler-acres-subdivision-et-al-respondents-108696","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"real-estate","label":"Real Estate","href":"/practice-areas/real-estate","score":32,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: real-estate","topic: property-real-estate"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/real-estate"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: civil-procedure","topic: appellate-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"appellant"}]}
