Alexandra C. Prevost Missouri Cases

Mother appealed the modification of a dissolution judgment, which awarded Father sole legal custody of their minor child and adopted a guardian ad litem's parenting plan. The appellate court affirmed the judgment, finding that Mother failed to properly brief her against-the-weight-of-the-evidence challenges regarding custody and the parenting plan. The court concluded that the circuit court's detailed findings supported the change in custody and the adoption of the GAL's plan, demonstrating the parents' inability to function as a unit. Mother's claims regarding child support and GAL fees were also denied due to briefing deficiencies.
