King v. State Roads Commission Of

In Peat & Co. v. Los Angeles Rams, 284 Md. 86, 394 A.2d 801 (1978), this Court held that a pretrial denial of a motion to disqualify counsel in a civil case is not immediately appealable as a final collateral order. The Court reserved the question of the immediate appealability of pretrial grants of disqualification motions. Id. 284 Md. at 99, 394 A.2d at 808. We decide today that a pretrial order disqualifying counsel in a civil case is not a final collateral order and therefore not subject to immediate appeal.
