Braxton v. State
Opinion
IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE,
TORY E. BRAXTON, § § No. 22, 2016 Defendant Below- § Appellant, § § v. § Court Below—Superior Court § of the State of Delaware STATE OF DELAWARE, § § Cr. ID 0910000699 Plaintiff Below- § Appellee. §
Submitted: January 19, 2016 Decided: March 1, 2016
Before STRINE, Chief Justice; HOLLAND, and SEITZ, Justices.
ORDER
On this 1st day of March 2016, the Court having considered this matter on
the opening brief and the motion to affirm has determined that the Superior Court
order denying several motions seeking correction of the defendant’s sentence
should be affirmed on the basis of and for the reasons assigned by the Superior
Court in its well-reasoned December 21, 2015 Letter Order. To the extent that
Braxton argues that the trial judge based the sentence he imposed on improper
factors, that argument is not properly supported by the record, is not rationally
supported by any argument of improper bias on the part of the trial judge, is
untimely, and is belied by the rational reasons given by the trial judge for the
sentence imposed. NOW, THEREFORE IT IS ORDERED that the judgment of the Superior
Court is AFFIRMED.
BY THE COURT: /s/ Leo E. Strine, Jr. Chief Justice
