p. 223; see Walton v. Magno (1994) 25 Cal.App.4th 1237, 1240
[“when a trial is bifurcated and first proceeds on the issue of
liability, no appeal is allowed until both the liability and damage
phases of the trial have been completed”].)
       In both Baker and Walton, despite the fact that liability
had been determined, the unresolved damages claims rendered
the judgment interlocutory. The same is true here, where even
though the primary objective of the proceeding to recover
possession has been resolved, the outstanding damages claims
remain to be adjudicated. Thus, the possession-only judgment is
not appealable.
