Krasney v. Curators of the University of Missouri
Missouri Court of Appeals

1Opinion of the Court
SHANGLER, Presiding Judge.
The plaintiff Krasney appeals from the dismissal without prejudice of a petition against the defendant Curators of the University of Missouri. The judgment of dismissal gives no formal ground, but is consequent upon the motion of the defendant that the petition fails to state a claim for relief because the matters pleaded assert actions in tort, and the Curators enjoy the immunity of the sovereign against such suits. The plaintiff argued to the trial court, and now on appeal, that the petition sounds in contract, not tort, and therefore the Curators must answer.
