If a final judgment has not been found, can an appeal be appealed from a judgment that fails to complete all causes of action between the parties?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Great West Contractors Inc. v. Irvine Unified Sch. Dist., 115 Cal.Rptr.3d 378, 187 Cal.App.4th 1425 (Cal. App. 2010):

12 No. It wouldn't have confused us in the slightest. Had an amendment been allowed and no action was otherwise taken to adjudicate it, any purported appeal would have been dismissed for lack of a final judgment. (See Morehart v. County of Santa Barbara (1994) 7 Cal.4th 725, 743, 29 Cal.Rptr.2d 804, 872 P.2d 143 ["Accordingly, we hold that an appeal cannot be taken from a judgment that fails to complete the disposition of all the causes of action between the parties even if the causes of action disposed of by the judgment have been ordered to be tried separately, or may be characterized as 'separate and independent' from those remaining."].)
