In Angel Capital Finance Inc. v. Jawaid (Ont CA, 2024) the Divisional Court considered the definition of an interlocutory judgment, and that it is not binding on the trial court:
[2] .... Such an order is interlocutory because it does not determine the rights of the parties, but only the procedure by which those rights will be determined: Roblin v. Drake, 1938 CanLII 54 (ON CA), [1938] O.R. 711 (C.A.). The reasons of Fowler Byrne J. that explained why the default judgment was set aside were not binding on the trial judge: Simmonds v. Simmonds, 2013 ONCA 479, 117 O.R. (3d) 479.
