Supreme Court of Delaware

Campbell v. State

May 8, 2017

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed Campbell's convictions, holding that the challenged questioning about witness statements and surveillance footage did not constitute reversible plain error. The court also held that, even assuming the trial court technically should have ruled immediately on Campbell's motion for judgment of acquittal, any error was unpreserved and did not amount to plain error because Campbell had already decided not to testify and could not show prejudice.
