Nancy CHEFFEY, Petitioner-Respondent, v. Richard CHEFFEY, Respondent-Appellant.

No. 17315.

Missouri Court of Appeals,

Southern District,

Division Two.

Dec. 31, 1991.

Marion Ann Reynolds, Springfield, for respondent-appellant.

Bruce McCurry, Dickey, Allemann, Chaney & McCurry, Springfield, for petitioner-respondent.

PER CURIAM.

Appellant Richard Cheffey seeks to appeal from a judgment entered by the trial court on November 6, 1990. Respondent has filed a meritorious motion to dismiss the appeal. The judgment was entered pursuant to the agreement of the parties. This appeal is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.

A judgment entered pursuant to an agreement of the parties is not a judicial determination of rights and cannot be appealed. Shafer v. Auto. Club Inter-Ins. Exchange, 778 S.W.2d 395, 400 (Mo.App.1989); Roberts v. Roberts, 515 S.W.2d 805, 806 (Mo.App.1974); State ex rel. Fletcher v. New Amsterdam Cas. Co., 430 S.W.2d 642, 645[7,8] (Mo.App.1968); Foger v. Johnson, 362 S.W.2d 763, 764-765 (Mo.App.1962). A party is estopped or waives his right to appeal when a judgment is entered at his request. State ex rel. Fletcher v. New Amsterdam Cas. Co., supra, at 645.

Appeal dismissed.

All concur.
