SLT Warehouse Company v. Webb

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• holding that piecemeal review is disfavored and the lower tribunal should rule on all interrelated claims to avoid the potential need for successive appeals
• holding that order granting the motion to dismiss counterclaim was not a final appealable order where claims were interrelated and involved the same transaction; noting that any assertions of error in the order may be reviewed on appeal from the final judgment
• dismissing an appeal from an order that dismissed a cross-claim, where the plaintiffs interrelated claims remained pending against defendants
• stating that an order is only final when \nothing further remains to be done by the court to effectuate a termination of the cause\ (citing Hotel Roosevelt Co. v. City of Jacksonville, 192 So. 2d 334, 338 (Fla. 1st DCA 1966))
• dismissing the appeal of the trial court’s dismissal of a counterclaim where the parties remained in the suit and claims were still pending in the trial court
• stating that the test for finality is “whether the order in question constitutes an end to the judicial labor in the cause, and nothing further remains to be done by the court to effectuate a termination of the cause as between the parties directly affected”
