Gray v. Bryant

Missouri Court of Appeals
Gray v. Bryant, 557 S.W.2d 489 (1977)
1977 Mo. App. LEXIS 2320

Gray v. Bryant

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

This is an appeal from an action on a promissory note. On April 21,1977, a Stod-dard County jury returned a verdict in favor of plaintiff in the amount of $4,333.27.

On the same day, the following entry was made:

“Judgment in favor of plaintiff and vs. defendants in total sum of $4333.27 in accordance with jury verdict. Cost taxed vs. defendants.”

The quoted material may suffice as a minute or docket entry but fails to constitute a judgment from which an appeal may be taken, notwithstanding its cognomination as a “judgment.” Cochran v. DeShazo, 538 S.W.2d 598, 601[6] (Mo.App. 1976).

The appeal is dismissed.

All concur.
