Stinson v. State

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the Superior Court's re-sentencing of Stinson for violating probation. Because Stinson admitted possessing contraband in violation of Work Release rules, the Superior Court had a sufficient basis to find a probation violation and acted within its discretion in imposing the sentence. The court declined to consider Stinson's ineffective-assistance claim because he raised it for the first time on direct appeal.
