What authority does a judge have to order that no further issues remain to be adjudicated?

California, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Shankar v. Chu, B289432 (Cal. App. 2020):

Such authority does not automatically render a statement in a minute order that no further issues remain to be adjudicated the functional equivalent of a final judgment. Until a final judgment is issued on all issues as between the parties, "trial is not complete but is still in process of determination. . . . Until that time, the trier of the fact may change his mind." (Reimer v. Firpo (1949) 94 Cal.App.2d 798, 800.) Even when "an order has been made directing the entry of judgment, [a court] may order a different judgment to be entered." (Ibid.)
