Court of Special Appeals of Maryland September 9, 2002, No. 1549 (Romano & Mitchell v. LaPointe)

BARBERA, Judge.

This case proves, in two respects, an exception to the rules of appellate engagement. It is the rare case in which we accept as a final appealable judgment the resolution of only one claim of a multi-claim lawsuit. And, it is a case in which we are asked to decide no issue other than whether the judgment is final and appealable.
