Kansas City v. Garza

Kansas City v. Garza
Missouri Court of Appeals · Decided April 2, 1973 · Ford, Shangler, Swof, Wasserstrom
493 S.W.2d 659; 1973 Mo. App. LEXIS 1061 (South Western Reporter, Second Series)

Kansas City v. Garza

Opinion of the Court

WASSERSTROM, Judge.

Defendant appeals from a judgment finding her guilty of a violation of the City’s traffic ordinances. Her brief sets out the following points: (1) A police officer who failed to appear and testify in municipal court may not be permitted to testify in circuit court on appeal; (2) An information based upon a Missouri Uniform Traffic Ticket may not be amended without leave of court; and (3) An information based upon a Missouri Uniform Traffic Ticket may not be amended without notice to the defendant.

These purported points are purely abstract statements of law and present nothing for review. Rule 84.04(d), V.A.M.R.; Boyd v. Boyd, 459 S.W.2d 8, l. c. 12 (Mo.App. 1970); Epperson v. Nolan, 452 S.W.2d 263, l. c. 267-268 (Mo.App. 1970); Scarato v. Hayward, 446 S.W.2d 135, l. c. 136-137 (Mo.App. 1969).

The appeal is therefore dismissed.

All concur.
