Supreme Court of Delaware

Yelardy v. State

October 14, 2022

Summary

The Court affirmed the dismissal of Yelardy's request for a certificate of eligibility to seek sentence modification under 11 Del. C. § 4214(f). It held that a prisoner serving habitual-offender sentences for multiple felony counts must satisfy the applicable time-served requirement for every count, and Yelardy had not served the required minimum for all eight counts. The Court also held that the State's motion to affirm was permissible and denied Yelardy's motion to strike.
