Supreme Court of Delaware
Earl Bradley, Defendant Below-Appellant v. State of Delaware, Plaintiff Below-Appellee
March 3, 20162016 Del. LEXIS 127
Summary
The Court affirmed the denial of Bradley’s second amended motion for post-conviction relief. It held that Bradley did not establish a colorable constitutional miscarriage of justice based on alleged deprivation of counsel of choice, and that his ineffective-assistance claims failed under the applicable procedural bars or because counsel’s decisions were objectively reasonable and nonprejudicial. The Court also held that the challenge to the digital search merely repackaged an issue previously adjudicated on direct appeal.
