Supreme Court of Delaware

Harris v. State

June 4, 2015

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the denial of Harris's first motion for postconviction relief. It held that Harris knowingly, intelligently, and voluntarily accepted a modified plea offer and thereby waived his previously raised ineffective-assistance claim concerning counsel's failure to communicate the deadline for the original plea offer. The Court found no abuse of discretion in the Superior Court's ruling.
