National Union Fire Insurance Co. v. Verizon Communications

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware refused to accept the insurers’ interlocutory appeal from the Superior Court’s decision granting Verizon partial summary judgment and denying the insurers’ motion for judgment on the pleadings. The Court held that the application did not satisfy the strict certification standards because no exceptional circumstances warranted review and the potential benefits did not outweigh the likely inefficiency, disruption, and costs.
