Supreme Court of Delaware

In the Matter of Petition of Merritt

May 12, 2010996 A.2d 794

Summary

The Court dismissed Linda Merritt's petition for a writ of mandamus because she failed to show that the Court of Chancery had arbitrarily refused to perform a duty owed to her. The requested relief also exceeded the Court's authority on mandamus and would improperly substitute extraordinary-writ proceedings for appellate review.
