May-the-court-of-appeals-override-the-parties'-factual-stipulation

QUESTION(S) PRESENTED 1. May the court of appeals override the parties’ factual stipulation crucial to petitioners’ right to recover, contrary to this Court’s precedents as well as the decisions of inferior federal courts, all holding that factual stipulations are final and binding on the parties and the litigation itself as judicial admissions? 2. Did the court of appeals violate the federalism principle of Erie R. Co. v. Tompkins, 304 U.S. 64 (1938) when it created contrary to Delaware statutory law new substantive State law about what constitutes a“report” under 12 Del. Code § 3585 for purposes of triggering the statutes of limitations for bringing suit, a result causing substantial variation in outcomes between State and federal litigation, influencing the choice of a forum for future litigants and depriving petitioners of property rights they would otherwise enjoy in State court?
