Supreme Court of Delaware

Vazquez-Garcia v. State

October 10, 2019

Summary

The Court affirmed the defendant’s convictions and sentences after independently reviewing the record under the applicable withdrawal procedure. It concluded that the record supported a knowing, intelligent, and voluntary guilty plea despite the defendant’s claimed mental-health history, and that the sentences were within statutory limits and were not based on impermissible considerations. The Court also found counsel’s review conscientious and the appeal devoid of any arguably appealable issue.
