Morgan v. State, No. 261, 2005, SUPREME COURT OF DELAWARE, August 4, 2005, Decided
View this case - free  

Overview: Because the denial of defendant's motion for release of evidence was not a final appealable order, nor was it appealable as a collateral order before the entry of a final order on any postconviction motion, the Delaware Supreme Court lacked jurisdiction under Del. Const. art. IV, § 11(1)(b) to review defendant's interlocutory appeal.

View this case - free  

Overview: Clerk of Supreme Court of Delaware received defendant's criminal appeal more than 30 days after his sentence was imposed so it lacked jurisdiction to hear his appeal under Del. Sup. Ct. R. 6(a)(ii) and dismissed his appeal. Thirty days after imposition meant 30 days after trial court docketed its judgment, not when defendant received copy in mail.

State v. Jackson, C.A. No. 05A-04-004-JRJ, SUPERIOR COURT OF DELAWARE, NEW CASTLE, August 4, 2005, Decided
View this case - free  

Overview: Because the Industrial Accident Board acted within its discretion in finding an employee's expert testimony more credible than the employer's expert, there was substantial evidence that the employee's condition was related to a work-related injury; thus, the Board properly awarded worker's compensation benefits to the employee.
