Missouri Court of Appeals, Western District / Date unavailable
Gregory Steins vs. Missouri Department of Agriculture
Gregory Stiens appealed a circuit court judgment affirming the Administrative Hearing Commission's (AHC) denial of interest on back pay owed to him by the Missouri Department of Agriculture (MDA). Stiens argued he was entitled to interest under various theories, including statutory provisions, the law of the case, and estoppel. The appellate court affirmed, holding that the AHC lacked statutory authority to award interest on back pay under the relevant statutes, and that Stiens's other arguments were without merit.
