The rights to a change of venue and disqualification of a judge in proceedings under this chapter shall be the same and shall be exercised in the same manner as in proceedings under chapter 517.
Source: Legislative text reproduced verbatim
Plain English

Missouri Revised Statutes § 535.100 establishes that landlord-tenant proceedings under Chapter 535 follow the same rules for changing venue and disqualifying a judge as those used in Chapter 517 proceedings. This means neither party has a unique or expanded set of procedural rights in these cases—the standard Chapter 517 framework applies equally. The provision ensures procedural consistency across these related types of civil proceedings in Missouri.

For Property Managers

Under Mo. Rev. Stat. § 535.100, property owners and managers involved in Chapter 535 proceedings—such as unlawful detainer actions—should be aware that the same procedural rules governing venue changes and judicial disqualification from Chapter 517 apply. A compliant operator generally familiarizes themselves with those Chapter 517 procedures before initiating or responding to a proceeding. Understanding these procedural rules in advance helps ensure that any motions related to venue or judicial disqualification are filed correctly and in a timely manner.

For Tenants

Mo. Rev. Stat. § 535.100 means that tenants in Chapter 535 proceedings have the same rights to request a change of venue or seek disqualification of a judge as exist under Chapter 517. If a tenant believes a judge has a conflict of interest or that the case is being heard in an improper location, the procedures available are those established by Chapter 517. Tenants who want to understand how to exercise these procedural rights may benefit from consulting a tenant-rights organization or legal aid provider familiar with Missouri civil procedure.
