Richmond v. State

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the denial of Ryan Richmond's motion seeking to reopen or modify his criminal sentence. It held that Civil Rule 60(b) could not be used to modify a criminal sentence, and that the Superior Court properly considered the motion under Criminal Rule 35(b) and denied it as repetitive and meritless. The court also concluded that sentencing disparities among codefendants did not warrant relief absent an illegal sentence or abuse of discretion.
