Missouri Court of Appeals, Western District / Date unavailable
D.W., a Minor Child, by and through her Natural Parent and Next Friend, L.W. vs. Hogan Preparatory Academy, INC., Et Al.
D.W., a minor, sued Hogan Preparatory Academy for sex discrimination under the MHRA and Douglas Bliss for battery, securing a jury verdict with compensatory and punitive damages. Hogan and Bliss appealed, raising several points of error. However, the appellate court dismissed the appeal for lack of appellate jurisdiction, finding that the trial court's judgment was not final because it failed to specify the monetary amounts of the compensatory and punitive damages awarded by the jury.
