Del. P.J.I. Civ. § 16.3
Intentional Concealment
INTENTIONAL CONCEALMENT OF FACTS
Fraud does not merely consist of overt misrepresentations. Fraud may also
occur when someone deliberately conceals facts important to a transaction, causing
[plaintiff’s name] to rely on the deception to [his/her/its] detriment. This
concealment can occur by a person’s silence in the face of a duty to disclose the facts
or by some action taken to prevent [plaintiff’s name] from discovering the facts
important to the transaction.
