Description
Appellants were the plaintiffs before the circuit court in a wrongful death action for the death of C. W. Mead. Appellant
Dede Mead was the spouse of C. W. Mead and the mother of his minor children, Stacie Lynn Mead, Joshua William Mead, and Leslie
Renee Mead. The appellants' cause of action against Dr. Henderson was dismissed by the circuit court for lack of personal
jurisdiction on Dr. Henderson's motion to dismiss. Appellants appeal said dismissal. A motion to dismiss is normally directed toward testing the sufficiency of the pleadings as they appear on their face. EmpireGas,
Inc. of Noel v. Hoover Ball & Bearing Co., 507 S.W.2d 657, 660 (Mo. 1974). That is, a ruling on a motion to dismiss is
ordinarily confined to the face of the petition. Feinstein v. Edward Livingston & Sons, Inc., 457 S.W.2d 789, 792 (Mo.
1970) . Grounds not appearing on the face of the pleadings may be employed only when such matters are uncontroverted. Ebling
