Supreme Court of Delaware

Christopher Clay, Defendant Below, Appellant/cross-Appellee v. State of Delaware, Plaintiff Below…

June 1, 20172017 Del. LEXIS 228

Summary

The court affirmed Clay's convictions for first-degree robbery, firearm possession during a felony, conspiracy, and resisting arrest, but reversed his tampering conviction because the firearm was immediately retrievable and therefore was not successfully suppressed. The court also affirmed the suppression rulings, finding reasonable suspicion for the stop and probable cause for the arrest, while reversing discovery orders requiring production of an intake sheet and prosecutor interview notes. The court held that the intake sheet and notes were not witness statements covered by Rule 26.2.
