1. A temporary or preliminary judgment or decision issued by a court before a final verdict is rendered, often made during the course of legal proceedings
The judge issued an interim verdict while awaiting additional evidence from the defendant's legal team.

2. A non-final ruling or conclusion that may be subject to revision or appeal before the final determination of a case
The interim verdict allowed the plaintiff to proceed with the next phase of the trial.
O veredicto provisório permitiu que o autor prosseguisse com a próxima fase do julgamento.
In both Brazilian and American legal systems, interim verdicts are significant procedural tools that allow trials to progress while preserving the right to appeal or revise the decision. In Brazil's judicial system (particularly the Código de Processo Civil), such provisional rulings (decisões interlocutórias) are integral to procedural law and can be challenged through specific appeal mechanisms. This term is primarily used in formal legal discourse and courtroom settings.
