Supreme Court of Delaware

Bradley v. State

July 9, 2020

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the denial of Bradley’s motion to correct an allegedly illegal sentence. It held that the transition-supervision provision establishes a minimum six-month period and permits a longer probationary term when the imposed prison sentence is below the applicable statutory maximum. Because Bradley was sentenced to eleven years under a habitual-offender provision authorizing up to life imprisonment, his two-year probationary term was lawful.
