U.S. Supreme Court Asked to Review Delaware's Oversight of Private Arbitrations

After the Third Circuit rejected the Delaware Court of Chancery from overseeing private arbitrations, Delaware has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to review what some called "secret trials," Reuters reports. "The arbitration process was seen by Delaware attorneys as a key to boosting the attractiveness of the Court of Chancery," Reuters further reports. "It was also considered economically important to the state, as at least one company in an arbitration dispute had to be incorporated in Delaware."
