TANAKA, Judge.
Petitioner-appellee (Petitioner) has moved to dismiss the appeal of defendant-appellant (Defendant). The motion raises an issue of first impression: Whether a family court's order adjudging Defendant to be the natural father of Petitioner's child but deferring for later determination child support and other subsidiary questions is an appealable final judgment. We answer no and dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction.
