Supreme Court of Delaware
Mumford v. State
February 7, 2023
Summary
The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the denial of Mumford’s motions to modify his sentence. It held that the Superior Court’s reference to a possible abandonment of the original motion merely explained the delay and did not serve as the basis for denial. The court also concluded that the Superior Court did not abuse its discretion in requiring documentation that the Department of Correction could not meet Mumford’s medical needs and in rejecting his unsupported COVID-related claim.
