Del. Ch. Ct. R. 88
Expense Awards
(a) Motion. A person may seek an award of expenses,
including attorney’s fees, as part of the relief sought in a
paper or by separate motion. If a person seeks an award by
separate motion, then the motion must quantify the
amount. If the Court has granted an award but not an
amount, then absent agreement on an amount, the
recipient must move to quantify the award.
(b) Affidavit. A person moving to quantify an award
must submit an affidavit that includes:
(1) a summary of the work forming the basis for the
award;
(2) the title, hourly rate, total hours worked, and total
amount sought for each person whose work forms a
basis for the award;
(3) a summary of the out-of-pocket costs—organized
by category—forming the basis for the award;
(4) a statement that the applicant has incurred the
amount sought; and
(5) any other information the Court directs.
(c) Exception. This rule does not apply to petitions
under Rule 192.
