Supreme Court of Delaware

In Re Columbia Pipeline Group, Inc. Merger Litigation

April 14, 2021

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware refused to accept the defendants’ interlocutory appeal from the Court of Chancery’s denial of their motion to dismiss. Giving due weight to the Court of Chancery’s decision not to certify the appeal, the Court concluded that the strict requirements for interlocutory review were not met and that the benefits of review did not outweigh its likely costs.
