Recording
11 Del. C. § 2402 — a party to the conversation, or one with a party's prior consent, may record it
One party is enough. It is lawful for a person to intercept a wire, oral or electronic communication where the person is a party to it, or where one of the parties has given prior consent, unless it is intercepted for the purpose of committing a criminal or tortious act.
Intentionally intercepting a communication outside that rule, or disclosing or using what was intercepted knowing how it was obtained, is a class E felony with a fine of not more than $10,000.
Federal law and the rules of a particular place, such as a courtroom, set their own limits. A particular recording is a question for a licensed Delaware attorney.
