Opinion

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE TIMOTHY YOUNG, §

§ No. 273, 2015 Defendant Below-Appellant, §

§ Court Below: Superior Court v. § of the State of Delaware,

§ in and for Kent County STATE OF DELAWARE, §

§ Cr. ID No. 1208000661 Plaintiff Below-Appellee. §

Submitted: December 9, 2015 Decided: December 9, 2015

Before STRINE, Chief Justice; VALIHURA and SEITZ, Justices.

ORDER

This 9th day of December 2015, the Court has carefully considered the parties’ briefs and the record on appeal. The appellant, who pled guilty to drug dealing, appeals the dismissal of his Rule 61 application. In several prior cases, this Court has rejected various iterations of the same arguments presented in this appeal.1 For the reasons stated in those cases, we affirm the Superior Court’s denial of postconviction relief in this appeal. The appellant’s petition lacked merit as he did not plead any basis to avoid the effect of his voluntary and knowing plea of guilty and he has not suffered an unjust conviction.

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED that the Superior Court’s judgment of May 6, 2015 is AFFIRMED.

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