Law360 has published an article titled, “How Del. High Court's Moelis Reversal Fits Into DExit Debate,” co-authored by head of Akin investment funds litigation and shareholder activism practice head Douglas Rappaport, litigation partner Stephanie Lindemuth and funds litigation partner Kate Shapiro. The article examines the Delaware Supreme Court’s unanimous en banc decision to reverse the Court of Chancery’s ruling invalidating significant governance provisions of Moelis & Co.’s stockholder agreement.
The authors explore the implications of the decision saying it “reflects recent trends in Delaware court rulings and ongoing debates about corporations reincorporating elsewhere” and “balances Delaware's pro-incorporation stance with the ongoing debate over its corporate law.”
Akin litigation partner Scott Barnard, and law clerks Lindsey Prutsman and Shiri Huber also contributed to the article.
