Supreme Court of Delaware

Dickinson v. State

February 23, 2015

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the denial of Joseph Dickinson's motion to correct an illegal sentence. It held that Dickinson's challenge to the validity of his attempted-robbery conviction was an improper collateral attack under Rule 35(a), and that his separate convictions and consecutive sentences for attempted robbery and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony did not violate double jeopardy.
