Court of Chancery Defines Bad Faith, Again
By Morris James LLP on August 29, 2008
Posted In Directors
McPadden v. Sidhu, C.A. 3310-CC (Del Ch. Aug. 29, 2008)
This decision again affirms that bad faith is not the same a gross negligence and explains the difference. That distinction is important because usually directors are immunized from decisions made in good faith, even if negligent.
