The CorporateCounsel.net Blog announces the big corporate news of the day – and corporate directors everywhere are breathing a sigh of relief.  Delaware Chancery Court Chancellor William Chandler "delivered his

directors didn’t violate their duties by ratifying Eisner’s decision to
fire Ovitz in a way that entitled Ovitz to a huge severance package."
