1. ““In defining what is a final order, we approve and adopt the rule stated in the case of Smith v. Sabler, 1 Neb. 310 , in which it is said that an order is final when it affects a substantial right and determines the action. An order is interlocutory which dissolves an injunction when the same is an incident of the action, and the substantial rights of the parties involved in the action remain undetermined; when no further action of the court is required to dispose of the cause pending, it is final. When the cause is retained for further action, as in this case, it is interlocutory.” Cl ark v. Fitch, 32 Neb. 511 . See also State v. Higby, 60 Neb. 765 ; Parmele v. Schroeder, 61 Neb. 553 .”
