Marvel v. State

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the denial of Larry Marvel’s motion to correct his habitual-offender sentence. The court held that his challenge to the proof supporting his predicate offenses was barred because it had been previously rejected, and that Marvel was bound by his counsel’s admission at sentencing that the requisite offenses existed. The court also restricted future filings related to the criminal case because Marvel’s repetitive filings constituted an abuse of the judicial process.
