Soto v. State

Summary

The Delaware Supreme Court affirmed the judgment after independently reviewing the record under Rule 26(c) and finding no arguably appealable issue. It held that Soto's no-contest plea was knowing, intelligent, and voluntary, that his plea waived challenges to the evidence, and that his sentence was neither grossly disproportionate nor appealable merely because it exceeded nonbinding SENTAC guidelines. The court did not address ineffective-assistance claims on direct appeal.
