In federal litigation, after the commencement of the trial but before the final judgment, Plaintiff seeks to challenge the court’s order granting a temporary relief measure to Defendant. Under the applicable doctrine, can this decision be appealed?
Yes, but if the appellate court agrees to hear the case at this stage.
No, the decision does not qualify for appellate review at this time.
Yes, certain non-final orders can be appealed if they meet specific criteria.
No, appeals are allowed after the trial concludes and a final judgment is made.
The collateral order doctrine allows for the immediate appeal of certain non-final orders that are separate from the case's ultimate merits, such as temporary relief measures. This permits appellate review without waiting for the trial's conclusion, ensuring important decisions can be promptly addressed.
