Delaware Chancery Court (DCC) has been considered for more than a century as one of the pillars of American capitalism. It is the jurisdiction reference of almost two thirds of the 500 largest companies in the country.
Nearly 80% of IPOs were registered on its territory, with companies relying on the expertise of its judges. A recent decision by the DCC against him has provoked the fury of Elon Musk, who considers the court to be a refuge for ultra-procedural lawyers and finicky judges.
