Supreme Court of Delaware
Rodriguez v. State
May 22, 2017
Summary
The Court dismissed Rodriguez's appeal because his notice of appeal was filed after the jurisdictional deadline, and his pro se status and prison lockdown did not establish a basis for excusing the untimely filing. The Court further concluded that, even if the appeal were timely, the challenged sentence was authorized and therefore not illegal. The Court noted that the Superior Court could revisit and correct its order if it determined that the order included information from another case.
