Supreme Court of Delaware
John Paul Mac Isaac v. Politico LLC
August 25, 2025
Summary
The Court affirmed dismissal of Mac Isaac’s defamation claims and the grant of summary judgment because the challenged statements were not reasonably understood as concerning Mac Isaac. It also affirmed dismissal of the Biden Campaign claim because Mac Isaac waived challenges to independent dismissal grounds, including untimeliness. The Court further affirmed dismissal of Biden’s privacy counterclaims because the intrusion claim accrued when Biden received inquiry notice and the publication claim was litigated as a single continuing wrong that was likewise untimely.
