Emma Grace Cole screamed as she was plucked from her guardian’s arms and handed to her mom, 6 years ago next month. Within a year of being reunited — a decision an Indiana court made — the “torture” began. New details about what Kristie Haas inflicted: delawareonline.com/story/new…

Securities class action alert: Supreme Court holds that tracing requirement applies in direct listing cases. This will make it very hard for investors to sue over misleading registration statements when companies go public by selling insders' shares

NEWS: U.S. Sen. Tom Carper, a patriarch of Delaware politics, will announce his retirement next year, ending a career as one of the most successful politicians in state history.  His announcement will shake up the state, with now an open U.S. Senate available in 2024.

Again, the AMC case is fascinating because VC Zurn - in scrupulous concern for allowing interested members of the class to participate - is now fielding a lot of communications/objections from retail investors. courts.delaware.gov/Opinions…

Children who dream of growing up to become corporate lawyers have no clue how much they will have to think about the State of Delaware. Someone should give them a heads up.

For those keeping score at home, in the coming months Delaware will need two new Supreme Court justices (Montgomery-Reeves and Vaughn), two new Masters in Chancery (Griffin and a new seat), and one new Superior Court judge (Carpenter). Dust off those resumes, Delaware lawyers!
