Is a judgment disposed of all nine causes of action and appealable under the one final judgment rule?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Eith v. Ketelhut, 242 Cal.Rptr.3d 566, 31 Cal.App.5th 1 (Cal. App. 2018):

Thus, the judgment disposed of all nine causes of action and is appealable under the one final judgment rule of Code of Civil Procedure section 904.1, subdivision (a). "Judgments that leave nothing to be decided between one or more parties and their adversaries ... have the finality required by section 904.1, subdivision (a). A judgment that disposes of fewer than all of the causes of action framed by the pleadings, however, is necessarily interlocutory ( Code Civ. Proc., 904.1, subd. (a) ), and not yet final, as to any parties between whom another cause of action remains pending." ( Morehart v. County of Santa Barbara (1994) 7 Cal.4th 725, 741, 29 Cal.Rptr.2d 804, 872 P.2d 143.)
