Delaware Gov. John Carney this year completed a historic reshuffling of the Chancery and Supreme courts, putting his mark on a years-long effort to reshape the judiciary that started under his predecessor.

Carney’s appointment of Morgan T. Zurn and Kathaleen S. McCormick to serve on the Court of Chancery filled two newly created positions on the nation’s pre-eminent business court and expanded the bench for the first time from five to seven judges.
