Following the Delaware Supreme Court decision in Corwin v. KKR Financial Holdings LLC, 125 A.3d 304 (Del. 2015), the Delaware courts have clarified and extended the application of the decision. In Corwin, the Delaware Supreme Court affirmed the Court of Chancery's ruling that the business judgment rule is the appropriate standard of review for a merger transaction that is not subject to the entire fairness standard of review and is approved by a fully informed, uncoerced vote of the disinterested stockholders. In so holding, the Delaware Supreme Court cited the "long-standing policy of [Delaware] law. .. to avoid the uncertainties and costs of judicial second-guessing" in such situations. In 2016 and early 2017, the Delaware courts have consistently applied Corwin, reinforcing that long-standing policy.
