Missouri Court of Appeals, Southern District / May 6, 2024
CHRISTOPHER J. GARDNER, Appellant v. CATHY J. GARDNER, Respondent
Christopher J. Gardner (Husband) appealed from an amended judgment dissolving his marriage to Cathy Jo Gardner (Wife), challenging the child support order, the valuation of his business, and the exclusion of certain debts. Husband filed post-trial motions seeking a new trial based on his oldest child's emancipation and to reopen evidence regarding the emancipation and two SBA loans, which were denied. The appellate court affirmed the trial court's judgment, finding no merit in Husband's seven points on appeal, including the denial of his post-trial motions and the valuation of marital property and debt.
