As the chair of the Complex Commercial Division for Superior Court, Judge Eric Davis oversees activities in a court venue that handles complex business disputes with an amount in controversy of more than $1 million. In 2012, Davis was appointed to the superior court after serving on the bench on the Court of Common Pleas. His career also includes tenures at Miles & Stockbridge, P.C and multinational firm Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP. In his courtroom, the highest profile case Davis has heard in recent time was the $1.6 billion lawsuit Dominion Voting Systems filed against Fox News that settled out of court after months of hearings.
