Missouri Court of Appeals, Southern District / Jun 29, 2018
JOHN BRAMER, Plaintiff-Respondent vs. RANI ABSTON, Defendant-Appellant
Rani Abston appealed the denial of her motion to set aside a judgment entered against her in a landlord-tenant dispute with John Bramer. Abston argued the judgment was a void default judgment or should be set aside due to due process violations. The appellate court affirmed the trial court's denial, finding that the judgment was not a default judgment because Abston had vigorously defended the claims, and Abston failed to preserve her constitutional challenges or provide a sufficient record to demonstrate error.
