This slip opinion is subject to revision and may not reflect the final opinion adopted by the Court. Opinion Missouri Court of Appeals Eastern District Case Style: Walter Scott, Appellant, v. State of Missouri, ex rel. Jarvis Simms, a minor, by Next Friend, Robin M. Simms, et al., Respondent. Case Number: 73852 Handdown Date: 10/20/1998 Appeal From: Circuit Court of St. Louis County, Hon. Samuel J. Hais Counsel for Appellant: Walter F. Scott Counsel for Respondent: Andrew Lange Opinion Summary: None Citation: Opinion Author: PER CURIAM Opinion Vote: AFFIRMED. J. Dowd, P.J., Crahan and Teitelman, JJ., concur. Opinion: ORDER Opinion modified by Court's own motion on December 22, 1998. This substitution does not constitute a new opinion. Walter Scott appeals a judgment requiring him to pay child support. On appeal, Scott argues that the trial court erred in that it lacked jurisdiction to determine a father-child relationship because the action was time-barred, and erred in failing to set aside the judgment despite evidence that Scott was disabled, unemployed and lacked the ability to pay. We have reviewed the briefs of the parties, the legal file and the record on appeal and find the claim of error to be without merit. An extended opinion reciting the detailed facts and restating the principles of law would have no precedential or jurisprudential value. Judgement affirmed in accordance with Rule 84.16(b). Separate Opinion:

None This slip opinion is subject to revision and may not reflect the final opinion adopted by the Court.
