Supreme Court of Delaware

Miller v. State

February 24, 2017

Summary

The Court affirmed the denial of Miller’s motion to correct his sentence under Superior Court Criminal Rule 35(a). It held that Rule 35(a) addresses only illegal sentences and cannot be used to relitigate trial errors, evidentiary challenges, or claims otherwise barred under Rule 61. The Court also held that Miller’s multiple convictions and sentences did not violate double jeopardy because they were based on six specific instances of sexual assault.
