Supreme Court of Delaware

Brianna Gallman, Defendant Below-Appellant v. State of Delaware, Plaintiff Below-Appellee

March 3, 20112011 Del. LEXIS 134

Summary

The court affirmed Gallman’s conviction for carrying a concealed deadly weapon because the jury instruction correctly stated the accessibility factors governing that offense. It reversed her possession-of-a-destructive-weapon conviction because the constructive-possession instruction omitted the required finding that she intended to exercise control over the weapon, and it remanded for a new trial on that count.
