Baltazar v. State

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the denial of Baltazar's motions to vacate his convictions and obtain post-conviction relief. It held that the sentencing rule authorizes only sentence modification or correction, not vacatur of a conviction, and that Baltazar lacked standing under the post-conviction rule because he had completed probation and was not subject to future custody. The court further held that the motion was untimely because it was filed more than one year after the conviction became final.
