Default Brick Roof flashing question

We had to replace the counter flashing which went over the flashing between
a brick wall and roof below the wall. THink of it as flashing a chimney
and replacing the counterflashing where th chimney connects to the roof do
to brick work on the chimney. A roofer was hired to install the counter
flashing. He used a piece of counter flashing at each brick and stepped it
to follow the slant of the roof and overlapped with the next piece of
counter flashing. He ground it into the mortar joint and sealed it with
some type of cement. My question is whether the verticle joints between the
pieces of counter flashing should be sealed with caulk or cement. Seems to
me they should be but he left them open. They overlap but are not sealed in
any way. Thanks.
