Bennett v. Bennett, No. 73, 2007, SUPREME COURT OF DELAWARE, August 6, 2007, Decided
View this case - free  

Overview: Because the Family Court had authority under Del. Code Ann. tit. 13, § 1513(f) to enter any order necessary to effectuate its judgment regarding a marital property distribution after the husband's bankruptcy case was dismissed, and because the husband never appealed the Family Court order, he was properly evicted from the marital property.

In re Hurley, No. 268, 2007, SUPREME COURT OF DELAWARE, August 6, 2007, Decided
View this case - free  

Overview: Because a judge was not proceeding in a specific case in which she was clearly disqualified, and because the attorney's clients had an adequate and complete remedy by way of an appeal to correct the judge's erroneous acts, the attorney's petition for a writ of prohibition and/or for a stay under Del. Sup. Ct. R. 32(a) were not ripe for review.

View this case - free  

Overview: Until a motion for recusal under Del. Judges' Code Jud. Conduct Canon 3(C)(1) was decided in a specific case adjudicated before the judge, the matter was simply not ripe for review; it was similarly premature for the judge to have ruled formally on the merits of the motion for recusal.

View this case - free  

Overview: Power company's motion to dismiss was denied as intervenors were not necessary parties under Del. Super. Ct. R. Civ. P. 19(a) since they were arguably tortfeasors, and it did not need to be determined whether they were indispensable parties under Rule 19(b). The equitable powers available under Rule 19(b) were inaccessible.
