Supreme Court of Delaware

Jones v. Gateway House, Inc.

December 7, 2023

Summary

The Court affirmed dismissal of Jones’s Superior Court filing because the Superior Court lacks appellate jurisdiction over summary-possession proceedings from the Justice of the Peace Court. Although the filing might have been construed as a petition for certiorari, Jones failed to show an error of law, jurisdictional excess, or irregularity apparent on the limited record available in certiorari review. No separate opinions were issued.
