Supreme Court of Delaware

Ross v. State

November 18, 2015

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the denial of Ross’s second motion for postconviction relief. The court held that the motion was untimely, procedurally barred as successive, and independently meritless because Ross had knowingly and voluntarily pleaded guilty and did not claim actual innocence or a false plea. The court also rejected Ross’s constitutional challenge to the postconviction rule.
