Pernot v. State

Summary

The Court affirmed Pernot’s violation-of-probation sentence. It held that his transcript-related claims were moot after he received the transcript, found no abuse of discretion in the Superior Court’s credibility determination or factual findings, concluded that the sentence was within the authorized statutory range, and declined to consider ineffective-assistance claims on direct appeal. The Court also rejected Pernot’s claim that the record supported a mistaken understanding about the duration of the Transitions program.
