The circuit court had denominated its order as an \"Order and Judgment\" for appeal purposes. The appellate court dismissed the appeal for lack of jurisdiction, holding that the order was neither a \"judgment\" nor \"final\" as required by Missouri law for appellate review. Specifically, the court found the order did not resolve any pending claims, and a prior claim for breach of fiduciary duty remained unresolved as property of a bankruptcy estate.","primaryTopic":"appellate-procedure","topicSlugs":["appellate-procedure","civil-procedure","other"],"outcomeNorm":"remanded","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=188174","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/luke-reynolds-plaintiff-v-samuel-berger-and-tmf-holdings-llc-defendants-l-109902","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"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":6,"source":"text","evidence":["text: llc"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/corporate"}],"role":"appellant"}]}
