Missouri Court of Appeals, Southern District / Dec 5, 2023
ROSE MARIE LEMMO, Petitioner-Respondent v. TIMOTHY LLOYD NOBLES, Respondent-Appellant
In a child-custody-modification case, ex-Husband appealed the circuit court's "Order Amending Modification Judgment," which added a payment deadline and awarded additional attorney fees to ex-Wife. The appellate court dismissed the appeal for lack of jurisdiction. It held that the challenged order was not a final, appealable judgment or decree because it was not denominated as such under Rule 74.01(a).
