Partner Stephen Blake authored an article titled, “Fault Lines Between Delaware Corporate Law and California Public Policy,” which was published by The Recorder. The article explored a number of recent decisions in both California and Delaware which highlighted the fault lines between the two states’ approaches across multiple areas of corporate law.

The article further noted that these types of disputes are likely to continue to play out in the upcoming months and years as both California and Delaware continue to grapple with issues of the interplay between corporate internal affairs and competing public policy priorities.
