Missouri Court of Appeals, Western District / Jun 7, 2022
Sylvia Norman vs. Progressive Preferred Insurance Company
Sylvia Norman appealed a judgment in her equitable garnishment action against Progressive Preferred Insurance Company, which calculated prejudgment interest based on the policy's liability limit. This judgment followed a remand from a prior appeal. The appellate court, however, dismissed the current appeal for lack of appellate jurisdiction. The court found that the judgment was not final because other claims and parties, including a cross-claim and claims involving Amber Ralston, remained unresolved, and the trial court had not issued a Rule 74.01(b) certification of finality.
