Judicial immunity will likely preclude such a case by you.
I took my dog to a doggy day care about 2days ago when I arrived to pick him up they inform that somehow he got free and bolted through the dog I have yet to find him so I wanted to know what are my options and how to go about them. Thanks

Unfortunately, Missouri law is pretty weak on this subject. You could sue to recover the cost of what a comparable dog would cost to purchase. Dogs are treated the same as other personal property.

You didn’t ask a legal question. If you are sued and served and don’t show up at court or hire an attorney then a default judgment will be entered.
Your landlord bears the burden of proof.

Without seeing the policy, one can only guess what it covers. My hunch is that the landlord’s policy won’t cover a tenant’s belongings but that merely a guess.

You described your situation but didn’t ask a legal question. If you were served, be sure to show up at court or hire an attorney if you can afford one. Missouri has a statute covering tenant repairs if a landlord won’t make the repairs but the statute is a weak one.
doesn’t replace it & doesn’t order roofing materials as promised. Isn’t contract breached at this point?
answered on Apr 28, 2022
He breaches the contract if he doesn’t honor its terms. For example, if there is a May 1 deadline for him to finish the roof and that date hasn’t yet arrived, then unless he has told you that he won’t perform he hasn’t breached the contract.

In general, there is no special privacy rights in a landlord-tenant relationship under Missouri law.
purchase material. I am told the contractor has purchased the material. The contract says if I cancel I pay 20% of the contract amount or the contractor's costs whichever is higher. If I cancel can I just forfeit the $11,000 but will I be entitled to obtain the material? Is the material in... Read more »

That's a large sum. For an attorney to provide a meaningful answer, the attorney would need to review your contract. If it makes financial sense to you, pay an attorney to review the contract. In addition to the terms you stated, the contract might also have a one-sided attorney's fee... Read more »

That’s terrible. Hire an attorney to seek to have that information not appear on Casenet. I don’t know why a judge would not grant a motion to seal or raise the security level of such filings.

There are no consequences if the buyer doesn’t breach the contract. If the buyer breached the contract the consequences could be the loss of the earnest money or a lawsuit for damages or specific performance.
I live in Missouri and before I pay the money I owe State Farm I want to be sure that they (or the judge) cannot either not turn it into the judge or the judge rule against it being satisfactory
answered on Apr 13, 2022
Any judge can rule against a motion but if you’ve satisfied the judgment and the plaintiff refuses to file a satisfaction then you are entitled to have it satisfied. So long as you can provide that you’ve paid it in full, including post-judgment interest and costs, I see no reason that you... Read more »
I thought the original creditor dismissed this account as a hardship. I was surprised when a debt collector tried to collect on it, and now a different debt collector has bought the account and is suing to collect.

If the case is in the associate division then your mere appearance at court constitutes a general denial of the allegations. If you wish to assert affirmative defenses, you must plead them in writing.

Your contract governs. I think you misstated something. You claim that you entered into the contract in November 2021 and he finished the work in November 2022. We are only in early April 2022. Although it took longer than expected for him to finish the roof, unless you’ve suffered financial... Read more »

It’s hard to answer your question. I presume you are an adult and therefore responsible to honor your written commitments. I don’t understand how you were “made” to sign an agreement as opposed to having chosen to sign the agreement because you assessed the situation and viewed not... Read more »

You didn’t state whether you are represented by counsel. If so, rely on your counsel’s advice. There’s no way for a stranger to the situation to give you advice on such an important decision.

Whether is makes sense to sue is the better question and will depend on many factors. Those factors include the merits of the potential case, whether you are... Read more »

An attorney would need to read your lease in order to give sound advice. An attorney could try to negotiate a mutual termination of your lease so that no lawsuit against you gets filed. If you simply decide that your landlord breached the lease and you vacate, you will likely get sued.
