Oscar Lopez Missouri Cases

Oscar Lopez sued Heartland Midwest, LLC, Time Warner Cable Midwest, LLC, and Charter Communications for injuries sustained in a gas main explosion. Lopez later dismissed Time Warner without prejudice and arbitrated claims against Heartland, resulting in an award. Time Warner appealed the trial court's judgment confirming the arbitration award and denying its motion to intervene. The appellate court dismissed the appeal, holding that the judgment was not final because claims against Charter Communications and Time Warner's third-party claims against USIC Locating Services, LLC, remained pending.
