ORDER
This 12th day of November 2002, it appears to the Court that:
(1) The defendant-appellant, Bell Atlantic-Delaware, Inc., has petitioned this Court, pursuant to Supreme Court Rule 42, to accept an appeal from an interlocutory order of the Superior Court dated October 16, 2002. The Superior Court's decision, among other things, denied Bell Atlantic's motion to dismiss due to insufficiency of service of process.
(2) The Superior Court denied Bell Atlantic's application for certification to take an interlocutory appeal.
(3) Applications for interlocutory review are addressed to the sound discretion of this Court. In the exercise of its discretion, this Court has concluded that the application for interlocutory review does not meet the requirements of Supreme Court Rule 42(b) and should be refused.
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the within interlocutory appeal is REFUSED .
