HOOD, Associate Judge.

In an automobile collision case the jury returned a verdict for defendant. Immediately thereafter the trial court on its own initiative set aside the verdict and ordered a new trial.1 Defendant has appealed from that order.

Our first question is the appealablity of an order granting a new trial. Our jurisdiction, with exceptions not here material, is limited to review of final orders and judgments.
