Kelly writes, “The dispute, which is playing out in Delaware Chancery Court, stems from a missed $46,000 interest payment that came due only weeks after the deal closed in September 2014. Most recently, Judge J. Travis Laster sided with the family and dismissed the buyers’ motion to toss the case.
“‘In terms of the motion to strike — I’ll be kind — that was just not a well-founded motion,’ the judge said in his latest ruling.
