The trial court dismissed the claim for jail time credit based on collateral estoppel from a prior habeas judgment and dismissed the treatment program credit claim for failure to state a claim. The appellate court affirmed the dismissal regarding the treatment program credit but reversed and remanded the jail time credit claim, holding that the habeas court's ruling on the merits of a non-cognizable claim had no preclusive effect.","primaryTopic":"criminal-procedure","topicSlugs":["criminal-procedure","civil-procedure","summary-judgment","appellate-procedure","governmental-immunity"],"outcomeNorm":"mixed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=136681","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/russell-scott-lynch-v-james-hurley-d81790","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"criminal-law","label":"Criminal Law","href":"/practice-areas/criminal-law","score":32,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: criminal-law","topic: criminal-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/criminal-law"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: civil-procedure","topic: summary-judgment","topic: appellate-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"respondent"}]}
