all courts whose orders are not final and appealable, should decide the lis before it on all issues
We also deem it necessary to reiterate herein a
fundamental principle of law that all courts whose orders are
not final and appealable, should take notice of. All such
courts should decide the lis before it on all issues as may be
raised by the parties though in its comprehension the same
can be decided on a single or any given issue without going
into the other questions raised or that may have arisen. Such
a course of action is necessary to enable the next court in
the hierarchy to bring the proceeding before it to a full and
complete conclusion instead of causing a remand of the
matter for a decision on the issue(s) that may have been left
undetermined as has happened in the present case. The
above may provide a small solution to the inevitable delays
that occur in rendering the final verdict in a given case.
