INTERLOCUTORY Order, that which decides not the cause, but only settles some intervening matter relating to the cause; as where an order is made in chancery, for the plaintiff to have an injunction to quit possession till the hearing of the cause. This order, not being final, is called interlocutory.
INTERLOPERS are properly those who, without due authority, hinder the trade of a company or corporation lawfully established, by dealing in the same way.
