Dorsey v. Dorsey

Summary

The Court dismissed two direct appeals because the challenged Family Court orders were interlocutory rather than final, and it refused two petitions for interlocutory review. Orders reopening ancillary matters and setting aside the parties’ agreement left ancillary issues for later resolution and therefore were not immediately appealable. The Court concluded that the intertwined legal, procedural, and factual issues should first be resolved in a final Family Court judgment, particularly because the Family Court had corrected the divorce date. No separate opinions were filed.
