# AlreadyFinalizing (/docs/errors/chain/AlreadyFinalizing)

A `finalize` call was made while another finalization is still in progress, i.e. the dispatched call from a previous finalize has not cleared. Check that the `CurrentCrowdloanId` storage value is empty before retrying.

Declared by the `Crowdloan` pallet; it classifies to the semantic code [`already_exists`](/docs/errors/already-exists).

## Remediation [#remediation]

The object or state already exists; treat the goal as met or pick a different target

The same explanation is available in the terminal: `btcli explain AlreadyFinalizing`.
