Supreme Court of Delaware

Edwards v. State

February 27, 2017

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed Edwards's convictions and sentences after independently reviewing the record under the no-merit appellate procedure. It found no plain error in joinder or the jury instruction, no prejudicial failure to preserve evidence, sufficient evidence of physical injury for the Exxon robbery, and no basis to consider the unpreserved jury-selection claims. The Court also concluded that counsel had conscientiously examined the record and that the appeal presented no nonfrivolous issue.
