The appellate court first concluded the appeal was not moot. It then reversed and remanded the contempt judgment, holding that it failed to recite the facts constituting contempt and improperly amended the dissolution judgment in violation of the separation agreement and statute. The court affirmed the trial court's decision to hear a video used to refresh recollection, finding no reversible error.","primaryTopic":"family-law","topicSlugs":["family-law","civil-procedure","divorce","appellate-procedure","evidence"],"outcomeNorm":"unknown","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=218337","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/linda-j-tierney-appellant-v-lawrence-j-tierney-respondent-112742","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"family","label":"Family Law","href":"/practice-areas/family","score":36,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: family-law","topic: family-law","topic: divorce","text: dissolution"],"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: evidence","topic: appellate-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"respondent"}]}
