Vogel, a guarantor for loans made to Lindworth Investments, LLC, alleged he was fraudulently induced by misrepresentations regarding the collateral's value and rental income. The appellate court affirmed the trial court's denial of Big A's motion, concluding that Vogel presented a submissible case for fraudulent inducement, distinguishing the facts from prior precedent regarding guarantor reliance.","primaryTopic":"contracts","topicSlugs":["contracts","civil-procedure","summary-judgment","evidence","appellate-procedure"],"outcomeNorm":"unknown","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=129036","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/big-a-llc-v-paul-vogel-d81215","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: summary-judgment","topic: evidence","topic: appellate-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"respondent"}]}
