Once Again, Delaware Legal Elites Enrich Themselves at the Expense of Job Creators Employing Thousands of Workers

Following a shocking new report revealing that lawyers in the Musk-Twitter lawsuit billed as much as $200 million in legal fees in the case – a staggering amount given the scheduled start of the trial is still more than a week away – Citizens for Judicial Fairness Campaign Manager Chris Coffey released the following statement:.

"Our courts must be a bastion for justice and fairness – not a scam for connected lawyers to fatten their wallets by fleecing the businesses that they’re meant to serve, and that provide the livelihoods of thousands of hardworking employees and their families.

“Once again, the Chancery Court is top of class in empowering legal elites to enrich themselves at the expense of everyday people just because they go to the same country clubs as court ‘justices.’ Every day this disgraceful self-dealing system racks up money for rich, well-connected lawyers, is a day hard-working people have to work even harder to make up the difference. The time for judicial reform is long overdue, because instead of serving the lofty ideals of justice, or the needs of our communities, at the Delaware Chancery Court, the meter's always running."
