Missouri Court of Appeals, Eastern District / Date unavailable
Karen E. Spalding, Deborah K. Thelen, and Cynthia M. Parazak, Appellants, v. Kimberly Agnes Martin and Gary Thomas Martin, Respondent.
Plaintiffs Karen Spalding, Cynthia Parazak, and Deborah Thelen appealed the trial court's judgment granting Defendants Kimberly and Gary Martin's motion to enforce a settlement and dismissing their lawsuit. The dispute arose from Martin's use of funds from a family trust. The appellate court affirmed the trial court's decision, finding that the email exchanges and actions of the parties constituted clear and convincing evidence of a valid settlement agreement.
