The appellate court determined that the order was an immediately appealable interlocutory order under Missouri probate law. However, the court dismissed Janet's appeal as untimely, holding that her notice of appeal was filed 116 days after the order, well beyond the ten-day period required for such interlocutory orders.","primaryTopic":"estate-probate","topicSlugs":["estate-probate","appellate-procedure","civil-procedure"],"outcomeNorm":"dismissed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=221496","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/in-the-matter-of-arthur-c-claypoole-protectee-janet-ravenscraft-v-jennife-d86931","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"family","label":"Family Law","href":"/practice-areas/family","score":20,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: family-law"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/family"},{"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":"respondent"}]}
