Crystelle Marie Shelton Missouri Cases

Ms. Crystelle Marie Shelton (Wife) appealed from an amended judgment dissolving her marriage to Mr. Anthony Jay Shelton (Husband), which addressed property division, custody, and child support. The appellate court had previously stricken Wife's initial brief due to numerous Rule 84.04 deficiencies and granted her leave to amend. However, her amended brief still failed to correct these issues, including inadequate statements of fact, non-compliant points relied on, and missing standards of review. Consequently, the Missouri Court of Appeals dismissed Wife's appeal, finding that the persistent briefing deficiencies impeded a disposition of the case on its merits.
