O R D E R 
 
This 7th day of May 2003, it appears to the Court that: 
(1) 
The plaintiff below, H. Beatty Chadwick, has petitioned this Court, 
pursuant to Supreme Court Rule 42, to appeal from three interlocutory orders of 
the Superior Court, all dated February 24, 2003.  The first two orders dismissed 
Chadwick’s complaint against the individual defendants, Christopher 
McDougall and Barbara Applegate.  The third order granted Metro Corp.’s 
motion to stay the proceedings until August 24, 2003.   
 
 
-2-
(2) 
On April 9, 2003, the Superior Court denied Chadwick’s 
application to certify an interlocutory appeal to this Court.  The Court also 
denied Chadwick’s motion for entry of final judgment under Superior Court 
Civil 54(b), without prejudice to Chadwick’s right to renew the motion upon 
expiration of the Superior Court’s stay order. 
(3) 
Applications for interlocutory review are addressed to the sound 
discretion of this Court and are granted only in extraordinary cases. 
(4) 
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 is REFUSED.   
BY THE COURT:
