On December 4, 2005, Richard and Twy-la Moser leased a house located at 606 Market Street in Weston, Missouri, to Steven and Vickie Cline for $355 per month. When the Clines failed to pay the rent due, the Mosers made written demand on January 12, February 13, and March 1, 2006, that the Clines vacate the premises. They also notified the Clines that they were terminating the lease effective March 17, 2006. The Clines failed to vacate the premises, and the Mosers filed a petition for unlawful detainer and for rent and possession on March 24, 2006. The petition alleged that the Clines failed to pay the rent when due and that after giving sixty days notice, the Mosers terminated the lease effective March 17, 2006. In Count I for unlawful detainer, the Mosers requested a judgment in their favor ordering the Sheriff to restore possession of the property to them and awarding double the rent ($355 per month) from the date of the lease termination until possession is restored. In Count II for rent and possession, the Mosers requested a judgment in their favor for possession of the property and awarding them $573.00 in rent due prior to termination of the lease and for reasonable attorney fees and costs.
