Supreme Court of Delaware

Santiago v. State

November 12, 2014

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed Santiago's convictions and sentences after independently reviewing the record under Rule 26(c). It held that Santiago could not challenge the sufficiency of the documentation supporting habitual-offender sentencing because he had expressly agreed in his guilty plea that the prior burglary conviction qualified him for such sentencing and did not contest the habitual-offender petition below.
