ORDER
This 27th day of February 2003, it appears to the Court that:
1) The appellants in each of the above-captioned causes of action have filed applications for this Court to accept each case for interlocutory review on an expedited basis.
2) The Court of Chancery declined to certify either case for interlocutory review. This Court has considered the consolidated opinion of the Court of Chancery on the merits, the bench ruling of the Court of Chancery declining to certify either matter for interlocutory review, and the submissions to this Court by the parties.
3) Applications for interlocutory review are addressed to the sound discretion of this Court and are accepted only in extraordinary circumstances. In the exercise of its discretion, this Court has concluded that the applications for interlocutory review do not meet the requirements of Supreme Court Rule 42 and should be refused.
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that both applications for interlocutory review in this matter be, and the same are hereby, REFUSED.
