Supreme Court of Delaware

Johnson v. State

November 2, 2015

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the denial of Johnson's second motion for postconviction relief. It held that the motion was untimely, that the claims were procedurally defaulted, and that the ineffective-assistance and newly asserted evidentiary claims lacked merit; it also upheld the Superior Court's decision to grant the State a brief filing extension. No separate opinions were filed.
