The Delaware Supreme Court on June 10 brought back to life claims alleging liability for a general partner's failure to act in good faith and to deal fairly with limited partners. Until the court's decision in Gerber v.

Gerber has now limited the protection such language was thought to provide.Chancery Reinstates Bulk of Previously Dismissed Claims
The Court of Chancery has has ruled that a no-action clause does not apply to eight of 10 claims it had dismissed with prejudice last year in a lawsuit filed against a Delaware corporation by an entity that acquired notes previously owned by the corporation. Vice Chancellor J. Travis Laster had initially dismissed the plaintiff's claims, saying the indenture's no-action clause prevented the defendant from being sued and he cited two previous Chancery Court decisions in which lawsuits were dismissed at the pleading stage because of no-action clauses. However, the Supreme Court had remanded the case back to Laster to determine if, under New York law, the no-action clauses in the current case were different from the no-action clauses in the two previous Chancery Court decisions cited by Laster.5 of the strangest lawsuits making headlines
