Opinion

PARAS, J.

Plaintiff appeals from an “Order Granting Dismissal of Complaint” filed August 21, 1975. This order is not appealable. (Code Civ. Proc., § 904.1.) No judgment was entered following the August 21, 1975, order, so the appeal is technically premature. Nevertheless, it is clear that the order was intended to be a final disposition of the controversy, and it is signed by the court. Accordingly, on our own motion we treat it as a final judgment. (Martino v. Concord Community Hosp. Dist. (1965) 233 Cal.App.2d 51 [43 Cal.Rptr. 255]; 6 Witkin, Cal. Procedure (2d ed. 1971) Appeal, § 69,…
