of the State of Delaware
in and for New Castle County
C.A. No. 09L-12-117
Before STEELE, Chief Justice, HOLLAND and RIDGELY, Justices
ORDER
This 3rd day of February 2012, it appears to the Court that:
(1) The defendant-appellant, Alicia A. Brooks (the "appellant"), has petitioned this Court, pursuant to Supreme Court Rule 42, to accept an appeal from the interlocutory order of the Superior Court dated January 11, 2012, which denied her motion to extend the time to file an answer, claims, and counterclaims and her motion to dismiss.
(2) The appellant filed her application for certification to take an interlocutory appeal in the Superior Court on January 12, 2012. On January 18, 2012, the Superior Court denied the application for certification on the ground that none of the requirements of Supreme Court Rule 42 had been met.
(3) Applications for interlocutory review are addressed to the sound discretion of this Court. In the exercise of its discretion, the Court has concluded that the appellant's application for interlocutory review fails to meet the requirements of Supreme Court Rule 42 and, therefore, should be refused.
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED that the interlocutory appeal is REFUSED.
BY THE COURT:
Myron T. Steele
Chief Justice
