Scott v. Missouri Department of Corrections
Scott v. Missouri Department of Corrections
Opinion of the Court
ORDER
Appellant Missouri Department of Corrections (“MDOC”) appeals from a declaratory judgment entered in favor of respondent Lande Scott (“Scott”) holding that MDOC could not require respondent Lande Scott (“Scott”) to serve forty percent of his two year failure to appear sentence before-being eligible for parole. In its sole point on appeal, MDOC argues the circuit court erred in ordering MDOC not to require Scott to serve a mandatory minimum of forty percent of his failure to appear sentence prior to parole consider
Scott’s motion for damages for frivolous appeal taken with the case is denied.
We have reviewed the parties’ briefs and the record on appeal. No error of law appears. A written opinion would serve no jurisprudential purpose. We have, however, prepared a memorandum for the use of the parties only, setting forth the reasons for our decision.
We affirm the judgment pursuant to Rule 84.16(b).
