JOSE GUARDARRAMA, Defendant Below, Appellant, v. STATE OF DELAWARE, Plaintiff Below, Appellee.


Court Below—Superior Court of the State of Delaware
C.A. No. Cr. ID No. 1604012801 Before STRINE, Chief Justice; VAUGHN, and TRAYNOR, Justices. ORDER

On this 29th day of January 2018, upon consideration of the parties' briefs and the record on appeal, it appears to the Court that:

(1) A Superior Court jury found Jose Guardarrama guilty of one count of Possession of Firearm Ammunition by a Person Prohibited and two counts of Possession of a Deadly Weapon by a Person Prohibited. The Superior Court sentenced Guardarrama to twenty-six years of Level V incarceration, suspended after ten years, followed by probation.

(2) On appeal, Guardarrama argues that the Superior Court erred when it refused to suppress evidence seized during a search of his residence because the magistrate who issued the search warrant for that search improperly considered evidence previously seized by the police during a warrantless search of trash bags found outside of his residence.

(3) The Court has determined that the judgment of the Superior Court should be affirmed on the basis of and for the reasons assigned in the Superior Court's December 14, 2016 Memorandum and Order.

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED that the judgment of the Superior Court is AFFIRMED.

BY THE COURT:

/s/ Gary F . Traynor

State v. Guardarrama, 2016 WL 7235694 (Del. Super. Ct. Dec. 14, 2016).
