Supreme Court of South Carolina

Decided July 24, 1995No. 24290PublishedCited by 28 opinions

1Per curiam

We granted certiorari to review the Court of Appeals’ opinion in Woodard v. Westvaco, 315 S.C. 329, 433 S.E. (2d) 890 (Ct. App. 1993). Because we hold that the order on appeal is not immediately appealable, we dismiss the appeal and vacate the Court of Appeals’ opinion.

FACTS

Petitioner brought this negligence action against respondent seeking damages for personal injuries. Petitioner’s complaint alleged that while he was employed by Southern Bulk Haulers, a trucking firm, he was injuried when a hose at respondent’s plant disengaged and sprayed him with a chemical known as “black liquor.”
