Missouri Court of Appeals, Southern District / Dec 20, 2022
T.J.W., Individually, and A.N.M.T.-W., by T.J.W. as Next Friend, Petitioners-Respondents vs. K.T., Respondent-Appellant
In this second appeal of a paternity action, Mother challenged the trial court's judgment after remand, which again awarded joint legal and physical custody of the child to Mother and Father. Mother raised five points of error, including claims that the trial court failed to follow the appellate mandate, misapplied the law regarding joint legal custody, failed to make required findings, and made findings not supported by substantial evidence. The Southern District of Missouri Court of Appeals affirmed the trial court's judgment, denying all of Mother's points on appeal.
