Barnes v. Hooper and Harrington Raceway, Inc.

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware refused the plaintiffs’ application for interlocutory review of the Superior Court’s dismissal of their claims against Harrington Raceway. Applying the strict standards governing interlocutory appeals and giving substantial weight to the trial court’s assessment, the Court found no exceptional circumstances and determined that the benefits of review did not outweigh the likely inefficiency, disruption, and costs. The plaintiffs may seek appellate review after the remaining claims are resolved.
