Miller v. State

Summary

The Court held that the trial court’s misidentification of the drug-dealing count as a Class B felony and its corresponding incorrect sentencing range did not constitute plain error warranting vacatur of Miller’s guilty-plea convictions. Miller received substantial benefits from the plea, his sentence was within the statutory range for the properly indicted Class C felony, and he did not assert that he would have gone to trial absent the error. The Court affirmed the convictions and remanded for the Superior Court to resolve Miller’s pending sentence-reduction motion. No separate opinions were filed.
