On the way to dismissing the plaintiffs' claims against McDonald's directors, the court took the opportunity to address the recent line of Delaware cases involving Caremark oversight claims. Under Caremark, directors have (i) a duty to ensure effective information and reporting systems exist within a company such that the management and board can "reach informed judgments concerning both the corporation's compliance with law and its business performance"; and (ii) a duty not to ignore red flags indicating wrongdoing. In Marchand v. Barnhill, 212 A.3d 805 (Del. 2019), the Delaware Supreme Court permitted a Caremark claim to proceed against directors of an ice cream company that allegedly had no specific reporting system to address food safety issues, an "essential and mission critical" compliance area.
