T.a.h. First, Inc., a Delaware Corporation, Plaintiff-Below v. Clifton Leasing Company, Inc., T/a Delmarva Kenworth…

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed summary judgment barring T.A.H. First from pursuing claims that could have been asserted as compulsory counterclaims in an earlier action. It held that the prior default judgment remained valid and preclusive even though the earlier case was later dismissed without quantifying the judgment. The court also held that its prior order did not vacate the default judgment or authorize otherwise barred claims.
