Janus Theatres of Burlington, Inc. v. Aragon

ORR, Judge.

The first issue is whether the trial court’s order is appealable.

All judgments are either interlocutory or final. See N.C. Gen. Stat. § 1A-1, Rule 54(a) (1990).

A final judgment is one which disposes of the cause as to all the parties, leaving nothing to be judicially determined between them in the trial court. An interlocutory order is one made during the pendency of an action, which does not dispose of the case, but leaves it for further action by the trial court in order to settle and determine the entire controversy.
