Rhodes challenged the constitutional validity of a damages cap, while the Commission argued Rhodes failed to make a submissible case. The Supreme Court of Missouri dismissed the appeal, holding that the circuit court's judgment was not final because it failed to rule on Rhodes's requests for equitable relief and prejudgment interest.","primaryTopic":"appellate-procedure","topicSlugs":["appellate-procedure","civil-procedure","employment-law"],"outcomeNorm":"dismissed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=223394","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/kevin-rhodes-appellant-respondent-v-missouri-highways-and-transportation-100998","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"employment","label":"Employment Law","href":"/practice-areas/employment","score":38,"source":"tag","url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/employment"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"appellant"},{"caseId":"moappwd:wd66269:undated","opinionId":"7c375dad-e0df-565c-a6d8-c8d4244eef40","slug":"houston-randolph-and-david-s-randolph-individuals-dba-randolph-farm-equip-d66269","caseName":"Houston Randolph and David S.
