- Single Judgment - Maintainability of Appeal
Several Supreme Court cases clarify that an appeal from a single judgment or final order passed by a Single Judge of the High Court is generally maintainable, especially when the law expressly provides for such appeals. For instance, in Somu Transport Ltd. (AIR 1966 SC 1366) and other rulings, the Court held that a judgment disposing of multiple cases can be subject to appeal, and specific statutes like the Representation of Peoples Act explicitly allow appeals to the Supreme Court from certain orders [RAM RAJ SHUKLA

Appeal to Supreme Court - Specific Orders and Judgments
The Supreme Court has recognized the right to appeal against final judgments or orders, including those passed by Single Judges, when the law permits. For example, appeals under Section 116A of the Representation of Peoples Act and certain writ petitions are directly appealable to the Supreme Court Ramdhan VS Bhanwar Lal - Rajasthan, KERALA STATE ELECTRICITY BOARD LIMITED vs STATE OF KERALA - Kerala. -
Limitations and Exceptions
Not all orders are appealable; interlocutory or interlocutory-like orders, or orders not classified as judgments, may not be subject to appeal. For example, special appeals against interlocutory orders under specific High Court Ordinances are held to be not maintainable Rajasthan Trade Union Kendra VS MJs J. K. Synthetics Ltd. - Rajasthan.

Analysis and Conclusion
Based on the Supreme Court rulings, a single appeal is maintainable even if there are only two judgments, provided these judgments are final, and the law explicitly allows such an appeal. The key determinant is whether the order or judgment qualifies as a judgment under law and whether the statutory provisions or rules of procedure permit an appeal from such judgments. Therefore, even with only two judgments, a single appeal can be maintained if the judgments are final and appealable under applicable law.
