An Act To Amend Titles 11 And 21 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Transfer Of Cases Between Alderman's Or Mayor's Courts And The Justice Of The Peace Court. [SB-85]

This transferability may be used in cases where an alderman must recuse themselves pursuant to the Code of Judicial Conduct or where it is impracticable for the case to be heard in aldermans court. A transfer to the Justice of the Peace Court ensures that the receiving court is well prepared to handle the case due to the similarities in jurisdiction.
