Correa v. State

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the Superior Court's judgment finding Nigel Correa in violation of probation and imposing a new term of incarceration. The Court held that the State presented sufficient competent evidence, including Correa's admissions and testimony concerning missed requirements, to establish the violations by a preponderance of the evidence. The Court also held that recently enacted probation amendments did not apply because they were not effective until after the violations and sentencing.
