The Court does not prepare or publish a compilation of its Missouri Approved Instructions for civil cases. Nevertheless, such compilations are available from various commercial and other entities. Many legal libraries, including the Court's library, have such compilations in their collections. You may wish to inquire at your local legal library. You may also call the Supreme Court Library at (573) 751-2636 to obtain a copy of particular civil instructions; however, library personnel cannot interpret the rules or do legal research.
