O R D E R 
 
This 11th day of December 2012, the Court, having carefully considered the 
decision and judgment of the Superior Court dated July 2, 2012 together with the briefs 
filed by the parties, has determined as follows: 
To the extent that:  (a) the issues raised on appeal are factual, the record 
evidence supports the trial judge’s factual findings; (b) the errors alleged on appeal are 
attributed to an abuse of discretion, the record does not support those assertions; (c) the 
issues raised on appeal are legal, they are controlled by settled Delaware law, which 
was properly applied.

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED that the judgment of the Superior Court 
is AFFIRMED.
