1Opinion of the Court

HUNTER, JR., Robert N., Judge.

Brunswick County (“Defendant”) appeals from interlocutory orders compelling former Brunswick County Manager Marty Lawing (“Mr. Lawing”) to appear for deposition. Defendant contends that because the orders do not indicate that Mr. Lawing is entitled to assert legislative and/or quasi-judicial immunity, he has been denied a substantial right that warrants our immediate review. For the following reasons, we disagree and dismiss Defendant’s appeals.
