Supreme Court of Delaware

Woods v. State

April 5, 2018

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed Woods’s sentence for his second violation of probation. The court held that the sentence was authorized because it remained within statutory limits, credited Woods for prior incarceration, and did not exceed the incarceration left suspended after his first violation. The court also held that requiring six months of incarceration to be served without early release was a proper exercise of the Superior Court’s discretion.
