Opinion

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE

DONICHA MCCANN-CROSS, § § No. 227, 2025 Appellant Below, § Appellant, § Court Below—Superior Court of § the State of Delaware v. § § C.A. No. K24A-10-001 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND § SOCIAL SERVICES AUDIT AND § RECOVERY MANAGEMENT § SERVICES, § § Appellee Below, § Appellee. § Submitted: October 24, 2025 Decided: January 7, 2026 Before SEITZ, Chief Justice; VALIHURA and GRIFFITHS, Justices.

ORDER After careful consideration of the parties’ briefs and the record on appeal, we find it evident that the Department of Health and Social Services’ decision finding that the appellant owed $2,341.00 for food benefit overpayments should be affirmed for the reasons stated in the Superior Court’s order dated April 22, 2025. The appellant did not make any arguments in her opening brief regarding the non- attorney investigator’s appearance on behalf of the Department of Health and Social Services at the administrative hearing and has therefore waived consideration of that claim.1 NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED, that the judgment of the Superior Court is AFFIRMED.

BY THE COURT:

/s/ Collins J. Seitz, Jr. Chief Justice

Supr. Ct. R. 14(b)(vi)(A)(3); Murphy v. State, 632 A.2d 1150, 1152 (Del. 1993).
