Marvel v. State

Summary

The Court affirmed the denial of Marvel’s motion to correct his sentence, holding that his convictions and sentences for second-degree criminal solicitation and second-degree conspiracy did not violate double jeopardy. The offenses require different elements and punish different conduct: solicitation was complete when Marvel asked another person to commit the felony, while conspiracy required an agreement and an overt act. The Court therefore granted the State’s motion to affirm.
