2016 Missouri Revised Statutes
TITLE I LAWS AND STATUTES (1-5)
Chapter 1 Laws in Force and Construction of Statutes
Section 1.080 County to include St. Louis--county clerk to include register of St. Louis.

MO Rev Stat § 1.080 (2016) What's This?

1.080. Whenever the word "county" is used in any law, general in its character to the whole state, it includes the city of St. Louis, unless such construction is inconsistent with the evident intent of the law, or of some law specially applicable to such city. Whenever the county clerk is authorized or required to perform an act by a law which applies to the city of St. Louis as well as to the counties of the state, the register of the city of St. Louis is authorized or required to perform the act insofar as it is to be performed in the city.
