Missouri Court of Appeals, Western District / Apr 10, 2018
Ronald K. Barker, PC vs. Douglas B. Walkenhorst, et al
Ronald K. Barker, PC, a law firm, appealed the trial court's denial of its motion to amend a judgment to include pre-judgment interest on its quantum meruit claims against Douglas B. Walkenhorst, et al. The trial court had previously entered judgment for the law firm on the quantum meruit claims but denied the motion for pre-judgment interest. The appellate court reversed the trial court's denial, holding that the law firm was entitled to pre-judgment interest on its liquidated quantum meruit claims, and remanded the case for further proceedings.
