Listen to this article

Where the appellate brief of a buyer in a case involving a real estate contract substantially failed to comply with Rule 84.04, the appeal must be dismissed, and even if the brief had complied with the rule’s requirements, the statute of frauds would make the contract unenforceable.

Appeal is dismissed.
