Supreme Court of Delaware

McNally v. State

November 27, 2017

Summary

The Court affirmed the denial of McNally’s untimely motion to reduce his sentence under Rule 35(b). It held that the mandatory twelve-year portion of his sentence could not be reduced and that McNally failed to show extraordinary circumstances warranting reduction of the remaining five months. The Court also declined to consider his newly raised conviction-based claims and explained that such claims must be brought through a Rule 61 postconviction motion.
