Bouvier's Law Dictionary and Concise Encyclopedia

Properly means a judgment or judicial order pronounced in the course of a suit, which does not finally determine the cause. But In Scotch practice, the term is extended to the judgments of the Court of Session or the Lord Ordinary, which exhaust the point at issue, and which If not appealed against will have the effect of finally deciding the case.
