This 24th day of May 2012, it appears to the Court that: 
(1) 
The defendant-appellant, European Performance, Inc., has petitioned 
this Court, pursuant to Supreme Court Rule 42, to accept an appeal from an 
interlocutory order of the Superior Court dated April 17, 2012.  The trial court’s 
order denied European Performance’s motions for summary judgment or partial 
summary judgment. 
(2) 
European Performance filed its application for certification to take an 
interlocutory appeal in the Superior Court on April 27, 2012.  The Superior Court 
denied the certification application on May 9, 2012.

(3) 
Applications for interlocutory review are addressed to the sound 
discretion of this Court.  In the exercise of its discretion, this Court has concluded 
that the application for interlocutory review does not meet the requirements of 
Supreme Court Rule 42(b) and should be refused. 
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the within 
interlocutory appeal be REFUSED.
