This 14th day of February 2017, it appears to the Court that the appellant, Marvin Holmes, passed away on November 28, 2016. Under Perry v. State, Holmes's death renders the pending appeal moot and divests this Court of jurisdiction to consider this matter further.
575 A.2d 1154, 1156 (Del. 1990).
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED that the within appeal is DISMISSED as moot.
BY THE COURT:
