021740P.pdf   12/03/2002  Kaytina Harrison  v.  Purdy Brothers
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  02-1740
   Western District of Missouri   
Civil case - civil rights. In trial for damages after defendants admitted liability for the crash which killed plaintiff's son, district court's admission of unredacted autopsy report did not result in a miscarriage of justice; plaintiff's counsel's closing arguments did not require a new trial; service of demand letter on defendant's insurer was service on its representative for purposes of Mo. Rev. Stat. Sec. 408.040 and the district court did not err in applying that statute and awarding prejudgment interest; dissent by Judge Beam on the prejudgment interest issue.
