Join us as we dive into the most iconic legal cases in Delaware history with a focus on the landmark Corwin case!

What were the key doctrinal innovations in Corwin? What is the impact of Corwin on M&A? How have later decisions reshaped the Corwin framework? The panel will include Hon. Andre Bouchard (Paul Weiss; Former Chancellor, Delaware Court of Chancery), who rendered the Chancery Court decision; William Savitt (Wachtell Lipton Rosen & Katz), who represented the defendant board members and KKR Financial Holdings LLC, and Eileen Nugent (Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom, LLP), a seasoned M&A lawyer.
