Russell Scott Lynch appealed the dismissal of his petition for declaratory judgment, seeking credit against his St. Charles County sentences for time spent in St. Louis County jail and in a long-term treatment program. The trial court dismissed the claim for jail time credit based on collateral estoppel from a prior habeas judgment and dismissed the treatment program credit claim for failure to state a claim. The appellate court affirmed the dismissal regarding the treatment program credit but reversed and remanded the jail time credit claim, holding that the habeas court's ruling on the merits of a non-cognizable claim had no preclusive effect.
