Highlights & Analysis of Key Decisions from Delaware's Supreme Court & Court of Chancery

More Directors and Officers Subject to Lawsuits in Delaware

By Francis Pileggi on June 4, 2016
Posted in Delaware Supreme Court Updates, Selected Articles by Francis

We previously highlighted on these pages a Delaware Supreme Court decision in Hazout v. Tsang, that expanded the orthodox interpretation of a Delaware statute with the net result of making it easier to sue in Delaware an officer or director who has agreed to serve in that capacity for a Delaware entity. Now, readers have the benefit of an expanded article I wrote on the case that appears in the current edition of the national publication of the National Association of Corporate Directors, called Directorship.

Postscript: Professor Bainbridge graciously links to this post.
