The appellate court affirmed the trial court's decision to decline jurisdiction over child custody modification issues, finding no error in the lack of findings of fact due to an untimely and improperly served request. However, the court reversed the dismissal of Father's family access motion and motion to quash garnishment, holding that the UCCJEA's jurisdictional provisions do not apply to these types of enforcement actions. The case was remanded for further proceedings consistent with the opinion.","primaryTopic":"child-custody","topicSlugs":["child-custody","family-law","civil-procedure","appellate-procedure","standard-of-review"],"outcomeNorm":"mixed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=179774","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/jennifer-l-schutter-v-paul-j-seibold-d84011","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"family","label":"Family Law","href":"/practice-areas/family","score":36,"source":"tag","url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/family"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"respondent"},{"caseId":"moappwd:wd79987:undated","opinionId":"31d0dc42-5f28-5dad-8044-6713a2dcebcb","slug":"jennifer-l-schutter-v-paul-j-seibold-d79987","caseName":"Jennifer L.

The Missouri court had dismissed Father's motions, concluding it lacked jurisdiction after a Texas court issued a temporary custody order. The appellate court affirmed the dismissal of Father's family access and contempt motions, holding that the Missouri court lost jurisdiction over custody matters once the Texas court issued a modification order. However, the court reversed the dismissal of Father's motions to modify child support, clarifying that the UCCJEA does not govern child support proceedings.","primaryTopic":"family-law","topicSlugs":["family-law","child-custody","civil-procedure","appellate-procedure","standard-of-review"],"outcomeNorm":"mixed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=220295","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/jennifer-l-schutter-v-paul-j-seibold-d86995","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"family","label":"Family Law","href":"/practice-areas/family","score":38,"source":"tag","url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/family"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"respondent"}]}
