West v. West

Supreme Court of Pennsylvania

Decided June 18, 1982No. 2273PublishedCited by 10 opinions

1Per curiam

This is an appeal from an “INTERIM ORDER” compelling appellant to pay appellee $180 “per week for support and maintenance .. . until further ORDER.” Appellant contends that the order is final and appealable. See, e.g., Paul v. Paul, 281 Pa.Superior Ct. 202, 209, 421 A.2d 1219, 1223 (1980). Appellee contends, however, and we agree, that the order is not final and that the appeal is interlocutory and must be quashed.

“The finality of an order is a judicial conclusion which can be reached only after an examination of its ramifications.” Bell v. Beneficial Consumer Discount Company, 465 Pa. 225,…
