Supreme Court of California

In a dispute between a physician and his hospital employer, involving the application of the general rule of Code Civ. Proc. section 904.1, when a trial court has granted a petition for writ of administrative mandamus and remanded the matter for proceedings before an administrative body, the Court of Appeal's dismissal of the appeal is reversed where: 1) although the issuance of the writ did not definitively resolve the dispute between the parties, it did mark the end of the writ proceeding in the trial court; and thus 2) the court's order is an appealable final judgment.
