Annotation de l'entreprise
Section 211 lets the Court of Appeal consolidate its ruling when a party challenges both the final judgment on a material issue and an interlocutory order made during the trial. Interlocutory orders normally cannot be appealed on their own during the case; they are carried up together with the final judgment. This section allows both to be resolved in one judgment so that the disposal of the interlocutory point does not disturb or contradict the judgment appealed alongside it. As the Supreme Court has noted, the purpose is to keep the ruling on the interlocutory order from unsettling the judgment or order appealed together with it, which is why joint disposition makes sense.
Pourquoi cela est important en pratique
If the trial court made an interlocutory order you disagree with, for example a ruling on postponement or evidence, remember that you generally cannot appeal it immediately; you raise it together with your appeal against the final judgment, and the Court of Appeal may decide both at once under Section 211. That means you should preserve your objection to the interlocutory order on the record so it can be argued later. Getting the appeal to package the interlocutory challenge correctly with the merits is a drafting skill, and errors can waste the point.

Supreme Court Judgment No. 689/2507 (1964)
Section 211 lets the Court of Appeal decide an appeal against the judgment on a material issue and an appeal against an interlocutory order in one judgment, so that the ruling on the interlocutory order does not affect the judgment or order appealed together with it.
Quoting Section 211, the Supreme Court explained that joint disposition is meant to prevent a ruling on an interlocutory order from disturbing the judgment appealed with it. On the facts, where the trial court judgment dismissing the case had become final, treating the interlocutory ruling separately would create an inconsistency.
