Terms Used In Missouri Laws 247.360

  • Appeal: A request made after a trial, asking another court (usually the court of appeals) to decide whether the trial was conducted properly. To make such a request is "to appeal" or "to take an appeal." One who appeals is called the appellant.
  • State: when applied to any of the United States, includes the District of Columbia and the territories, and the words "United States" includes such district and territories. See Missouri Laws 1.020
  • Writ: A formal written command, issued from the court, requiring the performance of a specific act.

If a final order be entered establishing the district, such order shall be deemed final and conclusive, and no appeal or writ of error shall lie therefrom, and the entry of such order shall finally and conclusively establish the regular organization of said district against all persons except the state of Missouri, in an action in the nature of a writ of quo warranto, commenced by the attorney general within thirty days after said decree declaring such district finally organized as herein provided and not otherwise. The organization of such district shall not be directly or collaterally questioned in any suit, action or proceeding except as herein expressly authorized.
