Supreme Court of Delaware

Sourcehov Holdings, Inc. v. Western Standard, LLC

September 3, 2019

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware refused to accept an interlocutory appeal from the Court of Chancery’s denial of defendants’ motions to dismiss. The Court agreed that the Chancery Court’s decision did not present an issue warranting immediate review, did not conflict with existing law, did not construe the identified statutory provision, and might not terminate the litigation. The Court concluded that the strict requirements for interlocutory review and exceptional circumstances were absent, and that the likely benefits did not outweigh the costs and disruption of an interlocutory appeal.
