PER CURIAM:

Block and Company, Inc. ("Block") appeals from the judgment upon a jury verdict entered on April 2, 2010, in the Circuit Court of Platte County, Missouri ("trial court"), in favor of Richard and Loreta Ryan ("the Ryans") on their claim against Block for breach of fiduciary duty. Block argues that: (1) the trial court committed reversible error regarding multiple evidentiary issues; (2) as a matter of law, Block had no fiduciary obligation to the Ryans in the manner claimed by the Ryans; and (3) there was no substantial evidence that Block breached any fiduciary duty it owed to the Ryans nor that any such breach caused damages to the Ryans and, accordingly, the trial court erroneously submitted the case to the jury. We disagree and affirm. Rule 84.16(b).

The Ryans conditioned a request for ruling on their cross-appeal in the event we reversed the trial court's judgment. Because we affirm the trial court's judgment, the Ryans' cross-appeal is moot.
