Delaware Business Litigation Report

Federal District Court Limits Fee Request

Mor v. Collis, D. Del., No. 13-242-RGA (June 30, 2015)

This is an interesting decision for the way it treats a fee request in connection with the settlement of Delaware litigation.

Counsel in a case filed outside of Delaware claimed entitlement to a fee because the settlement conferred a corporate benefit.  The Court denied the fee request because counsel was not able to show that the litigation it filed had contributed to obtaining the benefit.
