Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Missouri

We have had a judgment rendered against us in June of 2014. Suddenly the prevailing party has realized they put the wrong legal description for the property forward ( in all their pleadings ect.) the Judge used their faulty description in writing the judgment. They have now motioned and got the right to "re write" the judgment under the motion of a "clerical error" or nunc pro tunc. The opposing (prevailing) party has sent us a first draft that includes a property description that they "excepted" in their pleadings (as an exhibit) and their lis pendens. and should not be included. I know I need to communicate back to them that it's wrong, but if they proceed and send that to the judge, how do I properly oppose it in missouri civil court procedure. Can't get a local attorney to help (time frame is too short), and WON'T ask our EX attorney who botched our case in the first place. PLEASE HELP!!!

Keep seeking legal counsel, and be willing to pay more, because of short time frame. They'll need to file a memorandum in opposition.

Good luck
