Missouri Court of Appeals, Southern District / Nov 22, 2022
DARRELL WAYNE TURNER, Plaintiff-Respondent vs. LINDA JEAN JORDAN, Defendant-Appellant
Linda Jean Jordan (Sister) appealed a circuit court judgment that rescinded a general warranty deed signed by her mother, Shirley Turner (Mother), transferring all property to Sister without consideration. The circuit court found Mother lacked the mental capacity to execute the deed. On appeal, Sister argued the judgment was against the weight of the evidence, but the appellate court affirmed, finding Sister failed to follow the required analytical framework for an against-the-weight-of-the-evidence challenge, thus failing to preserve her point for review.
