David Tepper’s Appaloosa Management LP said it will ask a judge to set an expedited trial in Delaware in its dispute with SunEdison Inc. over the utility’s $1.9 billion planned acquisition of residential solar-power provider Vivint Solar Inc.
Officials of Appaloosa said in an e-mail Monday they intend to take Delaware Chancery Court Judge Andre Bouchard up on his offer to accelerate the case after he rebuffed Tepper’s bid to block a key component of SunEdison’s deal.
