Supreme Court of Missouri

In the Interest of: P.D.E. v. Juvenile Officer

June 13, 2023

Summary

The Court dismissed P.D.E.'s appeal as untimely because the juvenile division's March 2, 2021 dispositional order was final and appealable even though the amount of restitution remained to be determined. The Court held that the appeal period began when disposition was entered, so the notice filed more than seven months later could not support review of alleged defects in the earlier adjudication hearing.
