Supreme Court of Delaware
Walls v. State
March 10, 2017
Summary
The Court affirmed the Superior Court’s denial of Walls’s motions for sentence credit, medical parole release, sentence modification, and reargument. It held that Walls had not shown entitlement to additional credit, that his challenges to the validity of his convictions were outside the narrow scope of a sentence-correction motion, and that his untimely sentence-modification request did not satisfy the applicable exceptions. The Court also held that the Superior Court lacked authority to grant parole directly.
