The trial court granted a directed verdict for Laughlin and jury verdicts for the Davises and Kamms, but did not determine prejudgment interest or the date of taking. On cross-appeals, the Missouri Court of Appeals, Western District, dismissed the appeals for lack of a final judgment. The court held that a judgment reserving the calculation of prejudgment interest and the date of taking is not final and appealable, thus depriving the appellate court of jurisdiction.","primaryTopic":"appellate-procedure","topicSlugs":["appellate-procedure","civil-procedure","property-real-estate"],"outcomeNorm":"dismissed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=203796","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/mary-and-sherry-davis-kevin-laughlin-david-and-denise-kamm-v-city-of-kear-d85669","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"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"},{"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"}]}
