The state Superior Court has ruled that E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Co. cannot gain access to the payment terms of its opponent’s litigation funding agreement with a third party in a suit surrounding the alleged disclosure of confidential technology.
Superior Court President Judge Jan R. Jurden ruled in response to DuPont’s champerty and maintenance claims against plaintiff Charge Injection Technologies (CIT) that portions of CIT’s payment terms with Aloe Investments were protected by the state’s work-product doctrine.
