§ 144.640 [Formerly 143.010; renumbered 144.649 in 2001]

This isn't an actual rule with legal content. It's a citation note showing that this law was moved to a different number. The text tells us that what used to be called Rule 143.010 was later renumbered and is now found under Rule 144.649.

If you're looking for the actual legal rule, you'll need to check Rule 144.649 instead. Numbers like this get reassigned sometimes when lawmakers reorganize the state's law books, but the citation itself doesn't tell us what the rule says or how it affects anyone involved in a criminal case.

To get real information about your rights or the court process, look up Rule 144.649 directly. That's where the actual rule text will be found now.
