Cook v. Cook

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the Family Court's contempt order against Tobias Cook for delaying or failing to pay Eva Cook her contractual shares of vested marital stock awards and for withholding required documentation. The Court held that the Stipulation required prompt payment based on a reasonably calculable net value, permitted interest as a contempt remedy, and supported the award of attorney's fees. The Court also upheld the finding that Eva reasonably mitigated her damages and that the record adequately supported the amount of fees awarded.
