1Opinion of the Court
WAGNER, Senior Judge:
This case presents the question whether this court has jurisdiction over an appeal which would be timely only if errors in the underlying judgment defeat its finality. We hold that the errors in the judgment and memorandum order of the court do not affect its validity for purposes of appeal and that appellant’s untimely appeal must be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. We affirm the denial of appellant’s post-judgment motion insofar as it sought relief under Super. Ct. Civ. R. 60(b).
