The Delaware Chancery Court is one of the most significant venues for major shareholder litigation cases, and the Court’s decisions in those matters help shape the legal and valuation landscape for those cases. In the past few years, a number of cases have provided valuable insights into the court’s views on legal and valuation issues that arise in many shareholder disputes. Staying informed of such recent case developments is essential to the success of practitioners handling these types of cases.
In this webcast, a panel of shareholder dispute experts will discuss City of Providence v. First citizens Bancshares, Inc. (Del. Ch. Sept. 8, 2014); Huff Fund Investment Partnership v. CKx, Inc. (Del. Ch. Nov. 1, 2013), In re Rural Metro Corp. Shareholders Litigation (Del. Ch. Oct. 10, 2014), In re Nine Systems Corp. Shareholders Litigation (Del. Ch. Sept. 4, 2014), and other recent Delaware Chancery Court cases and their impacts on shareholder litigation. The panelists will discuss the impact these cases have on the role of financial advisors, the mechanics of stockholder disputes, the relevance of market-based evidence and other issues. The panelists will also present a case study example of a valuation in a shareholder dispute.
Please join David Margules, a litigation partner at Ballard Spahr, Jeff Litvak, a Senior Managing Director and national product leader for post-acquisition disputes at FTI Consulting, Inc., and Brent Miller, Senior Director at FTI Consulting, Inc. as they address these issues and your questions.
