Abstract
The primary gatekeeper at the door to the federal courts of appeals is the rule that only final judgments are appealable.2 The final judgment rule has performed this role well, for the most part.3 In certain cases, however, a trial court's error on an interlocutory issue is effectively unreviewable on appeal from a final judgment. To deal with this type of injustice, the courts and Congress have created a patchwork of exceptions to the final judgment rule.
