An Act To Amend Title 10 Of The Delaware Code Relating To The Delaware Supreme Court. [HB-113]
Since at least the 1980s, the Supreme Court has occasionally heard argument in locations other than Dover when time exigencies or special circumstances (such as the educational value of holding arguments at a law school) justified a departure from holding argument in Dover. To ensure that this long-standing practice is consistent with the Code, this Act would specifically authorize such limited exceptions to the general rule that the Supreme Court hears arguments in Dover. In emergency situations, the Chief Justice is authorized to determine if

An Act To Amend Title 29 Of The Delaware Code Relating To The Periodic Review Of Regulations Adopted By Executive Branch Agencies. [HB-147]
On June 14, 2012, Governor Jack Markell signed Executive Order No. 36 (“EO 36”) to help reduce impediments to economic growth and to improve the efficiency of state government. EO 36 requires each Executive Branch agency to periodically review the regulations on its books for possible modification or elimination. Following a robust public outreach period and in-depth reviews by each agency, the EO 36 resulted in the modification or elimination of more than 100 regulations. The EO 36 process is valuable and should be codified. To that end, this

An Act To Amend Titles 10 And 12 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Decedent's Estates And Fiduciary Relations. [HB-164]
Section 1 of the Act clarifies section 4915 of title 10. Current section 4915 expressly provides that IRAs described in Internal Revenue Code 408 and Roth IRAs described in Internal Revenue Code 408A are exempt from certain creditor claims. The Act clarifies that the section 4915 exemption for IRAs and Roth IRAs applies even if the IRA or Roth IRA was inherited by the owner. The clarification is deemed advisable in light of the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in Clark v. Rameker holding that a similar exemption in the federal bankruptcy laws did
