The following excerpt is from Crum v. Compton Unified Sch. Dist., B246985 (Cal. App. 2014):
Appellant has appealed from both the underlying judgment and the denial of her motion for new trial. The ruling denying the motion for new trial is not appealable, but the order may be reviewed on appeal from the underlying judgment. (Walker v. Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (2005) 35 Cal.4th 15, 18.) We review the ruling on a motion for new trial under the deferential abuse of discretion standard. (People v. Thompson (2010) 49 Cal.4th 79, 140.)
