Supreme Court of Delaware

Carlton W. Gibbs v. State of Delaware

September 9, 2015

Summary

The Court affirmed Gibbs's sentence for violating probation. It held that appellate review of a sentence is extremely limited when the sentence is within statutory limits, and that the Superior Court could impose incarceration up to the balance of the previously suspended Level V term. The sentence imposed after the violation did not exceed that balance or statutory limits.
