Wal-Ikram v. State

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the Superior Court's denial of Wal-Ikram's motions to correct and modify his sentence. It held that his five-year minimum sentence for possessing a firearm as a prohibited person was not illegal because his 2017 offense occurred within ten years after completion of a later-imposed sixty-day violation-of-probation incarceration term for his 2007 violent-felony conviction. The Court did not review the sentence-modification denial on the merits because Wal-Ikram did not challenge it in his opening brief.
