Supreme Court of Delaware

Galindez v. State

January 24, 2018

Summary

The Court affirmed the denial of Galindez’s first postconviction motion alleging ineffective assistance based on counsel’s failure to request a missing-evidence instruction and to call a co-defendant. Applying the two-prong ineffective-assistance standard, the Court concluded that Galindez failed to establish either deficient performance or prejudice. No separate opinions were filed.
