Missouri Court of Appeals, Western District / Dec 27, 2022
Endless Distribution, LLC vs. Lake Breeze Farms, LLC
Endless Distribution, LLC obtained a default judgment against Lake Breeze Farms, LLC for breach of contract. Lake Breeze subsequently moved to vacate the default judgment, which the trial court granted without explanation. Endless Distribution appealed, arguing the trial court abused its discretion by setting aside the judgment. The appellate court reversed the trial court's order, holding that Lake Breeze failed to meet its burden to demonstrate good cause and a meritorious defense as required by Rule 74.05(d).
