certorari

The Delaware Coalition for Open Government is arguing to the U.S. Supreme Court that it should not take up a case in which the Delaware Court of Chancery is trying to reinstate its secret, confidential arbitration program, my former colleague, Delaware Business Court Insider's Jeff Mordock, reports. "'Judicial arbitrators are deciding the substantive legal rights of the parties,'" the coalition's attorney argued, DBCI reports. "'That is a core basis for the First Amendment right of public access.'" The chances of the petiton being granted are 3.8 percent, DBCI concludes.
