The End Of Arbitrage: Recent Chancery Court Decisions Highlight Delaware’S Need To Overturn Transkaryotic, Celia Golod 2024 Emory University School of Law

The End Of Arbitrage: Recent Chancery Court Decisions Highlight Delaware’S Need To Overturn Transkaryotic, Celia Golod

Emory Law Journal

Appraisal is a legislatively created right that affords a shareholder the ability to seek a judicial ruling on the fair value of their stock when their corporation undergoes a merger that they do not support. While this remedy is intended to protect shareholders from faulty merger negotiating, in the 2010s hedge fund petitioners in Delaware flooded the Delaware Chancery Court to use the remedy to make a profit—a tactic called appraisal arbitrage. While appraisal arbitrage theoretically acts as a back-end market check on controller abuses, appraisal litigation is lengthy and requires court resources. Further, appraisal arbitrage allows hedge fund petitioners, …

SchröDinger’S Dissent: The Hybrid Authority Of A Dissenting Opinion, Christina M. Frohock 2024 Marquette University Law School

SchröDinger’S Dissent: The Hybrid Authority Of A Dissenting Opinion, Christina M. Frohock

Marquette Law Review

A dissenting opinion is the Schrödinger’s cat of authorities: both the law and not the law simultaneously. Courts and scholars often clarify that a dissenting opinion is not binding. Outside the universe of precedent, that authority defies easy description. Emerging from the pen of a judge wearing a black robe and acting in an official capacity, a dissenting opinion exhibits the form of the law. Yet, beneath that lofty sheen, a dissent exhibits the substance of commentary. A dissenting judge writes to undercut the law, providing a case law coda. This Article describes the traditional categories of authority, primary and …

The Consumer’S Choice To Boycott, Agnes Bresee

Seattle University Law Review

In the wake of employees losing their jobs upon voicing their political opinions concerning Israel, Harvard and Columbia law students’ job offers being rescinded upon expressing support for Palestine, and the names and social media profiles of individuals who support Palestine being collected and listed on Canary Mission, such backlash may leave many Americans wondering what form of resistance to settler-colonialist apartheid is acceptable in the twenty-first century. Recently, the movement to collectively boycott brands like Starbucks, which sued its Worker’s Union for a tweet expressing support for Palestine; Disney, which donated money to Israel; and McDonald’s, where a location …


A Different Approach To Agency Theory And Implications For Esg, Jonathan Bonham, Amoray Riggs-Cragun 2024 Seattle University School of Law

A Different Approach To Agency Theory And Implications For Esg, Jonathan Bonham, Amoray Riggs-Cragun

Seattle University Law Review

In conventional agency theory, the agent is modeled as exerting unobservable “effort” that influences the distribution over outcomes the principal cares about. Recent papers instead allow the agent to choose the entire distribution, an assumption that better describes the extensive and flexible control that CEOs have over firm outcomes. Under this assumption, the optimal contract rewards the agent directly for outcomes the principal cares about, rather than for what those outcomes reveal about the agent’s effort. This article briefly summarizes this new agency model and discusses its implications for contracting on ESG activities.
