Appellate Practice : Summary Judgment – Rule 74.04
Stephanie Maniscalco//August 16, 2016//
Where appellants brought claims including breach of fiduciary duty, fraud and breach of contract against a bank in a dispute arising from promissory note defaults, the appellants’ points and arguments in support of their points failed to conform to the procedural requirements of Rule 74.04, and the appellants failed to demonstrate a genuine issue as to any particular material fact in the summary judgment record, so the points are denied.
Judgment is affirmed.
