VAUGHN, Chief Judge.
The order, which granted summary judgment on plaintiffs' claim, is not a final judgment, but is interlocutory, as defendants' counterclaims remain to be adjudicated. Although an appeal does not customarily lie from an interlocutory order, an exception is made if such order deprives the appellant of a substantial right which will be lost if the ruling is not reviewed before final judgment.
