182 S.W.3d at 269. In this case, however, the Mosers did not bring only an unlawful detainer action. Their petition alleged two causes of action — unlawful detainer, section 534.030, RSMo 2000, and rent and possession, section 535.020, RSMo Cum.Supp. 2004. The doctrine of election of remedies does not bar bringing both because both are summary possession proceedings, and a landlord may pursue one or more summary proceedings to recover possession of its property.
