Morris v. State

Summary

The Court affirmed the denial of Morris's petition seeking a writ of error coram nobis. It held that coram nobis has been abolished in Delaware and that Rule 61 is the exclusive procedure for challenging a final criminal judgment; treated as a Rule 61 motion, the petition was barred on multiple procedural grounds and did not qualify for the fundamental-fairness exception. The Court granted the State's motion to affirm because the appeal was plainly without merit.
