RALPH REED, Defendant-Appellant, v. STATE OF DELAWARE, Plaintiff-Appellee.

Myron T. Steele

Court—Superior Court

of the State of Delaware,

in and for Sussex County

Cr. ID 9911018706

Before STEELE, Chief Justice, HOLLAND, and RIDGELY, Justices

ORDER

This 20^th day of September 2013, after careful consideration of the opening brief, the State's motion to affirm, and the record below, we find it manifest that the judgment below should be affirmed on the basis of the Superior Court's well-reasoned decision dated July 1, 2013. The Superior Court did not err in concluding that appellant's second motion for postconviction relief was procedurally barred and that appellant had failed to overcome the procedural hurdles.

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

BY THE COURT:

Myron T. Steele

Chief Justice
