The appellate court affirmed the summary judgment, holding that the specific reason for FHLMC's termination was immaterial given the contractual limitation on remedies, and that the Webers' second argument regarding an indemnification scheme was unpreserved for appeal.","primaryTopic":"contracts","topicSlugs":["contracts","summary-judgment","property-real-estate","civil-procedure","appellate-procedure"],"outcomeNorm":"affirmed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=201479","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/lisa-weber-et-al-appellants-v-federal-home-loan-mortgage-corporation-defe-111226","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"corporate","label":"Corporate Law","href":"/practice-areas/corporate","score":18,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: contracts","text: corporation","text: contract"],"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":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: property-real-estate"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/real-estate"}],"role":"respondent"},{"caseId":"moappd:ed107853:2020-04-14","opinionId":"949e81af-f72a-521f-8c4a-9189a9afe6df","slug":"federal-home-loan-mortgage-corporation-respondent-v-wilma-pennington-thur-107853","caseName":"Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, Respondent, vs. Wilma Pennington-Thurman, Appellant.","caseNumber":"ED107853","court":"moappd","courtLabel":"Missouri Court of Appeals, Eastern District","decisionDate":"2020-04-14","year":2020,"display_summary":"Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation sought to strike a mortgage lien Wilma Pennington-Thurman placed on her former home after foreclosure.
