Supreme Court of Delaware

Coble v. State

May 13, 2015

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the denial of Coble’s motion for post-conviction relief. It held that his challenge to the proof supporting his habitual-offender classification was procedurally barred because the issue had already been litigated, and that his ineffective-assistance claim also lacked merit because the record adequately established the predicate convictions and counsel’s strategy was reasonable. No separate opinions were filed.
