Supreme Court of Delaware

Taylor v. State

January 31, 2018

Summary

The Court affirmed the summary dismissal of Taylor’s second postconviction motion because his asserted evidence was either previously presented, irrelevant, not credible, or insufficient to create a strong inference of actual innocence. The Court also rejected Taylor’s claim that resentencing required consideration of a term of years rather than life imprisonment without parole or reduction under the applicable statute.
