interlocutory appeal

An appeal that occurs before the trial court’s final ruling on the entire case. 28 USCA § 1292(b).

• Some interlocutory appeals involve legal points necessary to the determination of the case, while others involve collateral orders that are wholly separate from the merits of the action. See INTERLOCUTORY APPEALS ACT; FINAL-JUDGMENT RULE. [Cases: Appeal and Error 68. C.J.S. Appeal and Error §§ 82–84.]
