MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Zankich v. Trebesch, 62 F.3d 1427 (9th Cir. 1995):
2 Although the dismissal was without prejudice, this is nevertheless a final appealable order over which we have jurisdiction. See generally, McGuckin v. Smith, 974 F.2d 1050, 1053-54 (9th Cir. 1992) (finding district court's dismissal of claims final for purposes of appeal because lower court intended to dispose of action).
