The appellate court dismissed KM Diesel & Tire Services's appeal for lack of standing, as it was not a party to the arbitration agreement and sought no relief. The court affirmed the denial of K&M Translogic's motion, holding that the arbitration clause in their independent contractor agreement did not cover the Peterbilt trucks because the contract, which required written amendments for additional vehicles, was never formally amended to include them.","primaryTopic":"civil-procedure","topicSlugs":["civil-procedure","contracts","appellate-procedure","standard-of-review"],"outcomeNorm":"mixed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=210414","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/nelson-trucking-llc-v-km-translogic-llc-and-km-diesel-tire-services-llc-d86571","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"corporate","label":"Corporate Law","href":"/practice-areas/corporate","score":18,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: contracts","text: llc"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/corporate"},{"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"}]}
