Before STRINE, Chief Justice; HOLLAND, and VAUGHN, Justices

ORDER

This 21st day of May 2015, the Court has carefully considered appellant’s

opening brief, the State’s motion to affirm, and the record on appeal. We find it

manifest that the Superior Court’s judgment should be affirmed. The appellant

completed his sentences in 2002 and thus had no standing to file a motion for

postconviction relief under Superior Court Criminal Rule 61.1

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED that the judgment of the Superior

Court is AFFIRMED.

BY THE COURT: /s/ Leo E. Strine, Jr. Chief Justice

1 See Baltazar v. State, 2015 WL 257334, *3 (Del. Jan. 20, 2015).
