Wayne and Tina Cook v. Brian and Kristie Griffitts

Missouri Court of Appeals

Decided September 6, 2016No. WD78821PublishedCited by 4 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtGary D. Witt, Judge

Appellants Wayne and Tina Cook (“the Cooks”) appeal from the docket entry entered by the Circuit Court of Howard County denying their Motion to Set Aside Default Judgment. The underlying default judgment was entered against the Cooks with respect to a counterclaim filed by the Respondents Brian and Kristie Griffitts (“the Griffitts”). The Cooks failed to appear in court on two occasions, and, there fore, the Griffitts were granted a judgment of default and awarded damages. Because the trial court’s docket entry does not satisfy Rule 74.01(a), 1 we dismiss the appeal.
