What makes a judgment final for this kit?
The decision must end the case and decide all issues for all parties. A verdict or intermediate ruling alone does not necessarily establish the final appeal event.
New Jersey Judiciary CN 10837, September 2025, page 21; Rule 2:4-1(a)Which event anchors the ordinary 45-day branch?
