Business clients in North Carolina are fortunate to be able to litigate certain claims in a court specifically geared for commercial and business matters.
The N.C. Business Court was formed in 1995 to provide high-level judicial expertise in specialized corporate law and commercial matters. At the time of formation - and inspired by Delaware’s Chancery Court - no other state had created a court system specifically to deal with complex corporate issues. The N.C. Business Court has been hailed as a model for other states to follow.
A case is not filed directly in business court. Instead, a plaintiff or defendant can file a notice of designation to that court. There is no minimum amount of controversy for designation to business court.
The court hears “mandatory complex business cases,” which include:
