Missouri Revised Statutes Title XXIV. Business and Financial Institutions § 362.800. Pending actions not to abate--substitution

A pending action or other judicial proceeding to which any corporation that is so merged or so consolidated is a party shall not be deemed to have abated or to have discontinued by reason of the merger or consolidation, but may be prosecuted to final judgment, order or decree in the same manner as if the merger or consolidation had not been made; or the receiving corporation or the consolidated corporation may be substituted as a party to the action or proceeding, and any judgment, order or decree may be rendered for or against it that might have been rendered for or against the other corporation if the merger or consolidation had not occurred.
