The trial court had found Rene's petition untimely, believing the 90-day statute of limitations included the right-to-sue letter's issuance date. The appellate court reversed, holding that both section 1.040 and Rule 44.01(a) require excluding the first day when computing the 90-day period, thus making Rene's petition timely. The case was remanded for further proceedings on the MHRA claims.","primaryTopic":"employment-law","topicSlugs":["employment-law","civil-procedure","appellate-procedure","standard-of-review"],"outcomeNorm":"mixed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=205794","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/nacha-rene-v-royal-city-bell-llc-et-al-d86294","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"employment","label":"Employment Law","href":"/practice-areas/employment","score":38,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: employment","topic: employment-law","text: mhra","text: employer"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/employment"},{"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"},{"slug":"corporate","label":"Corporate Law","href":"/practice-areas/corporate","score":4,"source":"text","evidence":["text: llc"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/corporate"}],"role":"respondent"}]}
