Havens v. Leong

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware refused to accept Havens’s interlocutory appeal from the Court of Chancery’s stay of his dissolution action and denial of reargument. The Court held that the application did not satisfy the strict certification standards because no exceptional circumstances or adequate justification for interlocutory review existed, and the benefits of review did not outweigh the likely inefficiency, disruption, and cost. The Court concluded that allowing the litigation in California to conclude was the most efficient and just course.
