New Jersey Building Laborers Pension Fund v. Ball, D. Del. No. 11-1153-LPS-SRF (March 13, 2014) and Freedman v Mulva,  D.Del., No. 11-686-LPS-SRF (March12, 2014)

In these two decisions, the U.S. Magistrate shows a sound understanding of Delaware corporate law. She recommends the dismissal of these two derivative suits under Rule 23.1 because the complaints do not show the directors were disqualified from considering a demand they sue. The directors' interest in a compensation plan that was only currently applicable to employees did not make them interested under Delaware law.
