Opinion of the Court
The bill of complaint filed in this case by the complainants, Bessie R. Bowcock and Marjorie Richardson Goodall, sought partition in one of the modes prescribed by law of certain real property in New Kent County. The defendants, Laura M. Richardson and others, filed demurrers on the ground that the bill did not set forth a cause of action entitling the complainants to partition against the defendants. The chancellor overruled the demurrers, and the defendants sought and were granted an appeal.
The threshold question is whether the order overruling the demurrers is an appealable order. If it is not, then this appeal must be dismissed.
Our jurisdiction to review the order is determined by reference to Code § 8-462 and specifically to that portion of the Code section which permits appeals in chancery cases from interlocutory orders
Appeal dismissed.
