  Other cases cited by Appellant (which do not concern unlawful detainer) are similarly distinguishable for the
relative definiteness of the contracts they addressed. Coale addressed a contract which provided for a price
determined by independent appraisal. 976 S.W.2d at 67. Powell concerned a contract providing for “fair value as
may be determined by competent outside certified accountants.” 463 S.W.2d at 803 (emphasis added). Tureman
provided a court at equity may set a lease’s rental rate where “no one questions” the continued validity of a partially
performed lease but arbitration fails to fix an increase in rent. 239 S.W.2d at 307. Biddle reviewed a lease providing
a fallback provision setting rent based on a city tax assessment if the parties could not agree. 15 Mo. App. at 533.
Even ignoring that these cases were in equity, they do not authorize courts to set rental rates which were to be
reached by future negotiations.
