Citizens for a Pro-Business Delaware Renews Calls for Transparency in TransPerfect Court Case in Light of “Bad Faith” Attorney Fees from Skadden Arps

WILMINGTON, Del.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, following a motion from TransPerfect alleging “bad faith” fees from attorneys at Skadden Arps, the company’s court-ordered Custodian, Citizens for a Pro-Business Delaware renewed calls for transparency and access to today’s hearing scheduled on the case. The calls originally came as outgoing Chancellor Bouchard of the Delaware Chancery Court is set to hear oral arguments in the TransPerfect case without a Zoom link for affected employees to observe and participate in the hearing.

Chris Coffey, Citizens for a Pro-Business Delaware Campaign Manager, released the following statement: “The lack of transparency in Bouchard’s Chancery Court has always been disturbing, but to continue denying access even as the Court-appointed Custodian is accused of ‘bad faith’ fees is particularly egregious. How will TransPerfect employees know the case is being heard in good faith with no way to observe or participate in such a momentous hearing? Employees deserve better than a Court that continues to ignore those whose lives their decisions impact.”
