¶1 A final judgment disposing of the case and allowing the defendant “to go hence” is essential to confer jurisdiction on this court to review the rulings of the circuit court, under section 6431 of the Code. Wood, use, &c. v. Coman et al., 56 Ala. 283; Eslava v. Jones, 79 Ala. 287; Martin v. Alabama Power Co., 208 Ala. 212, 94 So. 76; State ex rel. Wright v. Kemp, 205 Ala. 201, 87 So. 836; Wise et al. v.
