Supreme Court of Delaware

Erica Murphy v. Dempsey Walters

January 30, 2026

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware refused interlocutory review of the Superior Court's order striking claims against unidentified police officers named as Jane and John Doe defendants. The Court agreed that the certification criteria were not satisfied, emphasizing that Plaintiffs raised the constitutional challenge to LEOBOR for the first time in their certification application and that the benefits of interlocutory review did not outweigh its likely costs and disruption.
