Terms Used In Delaware Code > Title 10 > Chapter 54 - Court Interpretation and Construction of Delaware Laws [See Evans V. State, 872 A.2D 539 (Del. 2005)Concerning Unconstitutionality of This Chapter.]

  • Conviction: A judgement of guilt against a criminal defendant.
  • En banc: In the bench or "full bench." Refers to court sessions with the entire membership of a court participating rather than the usual quorum. U.S. courts of appeals usually sit in panels of three judges, but may expand to a larger number in certain cases. They are then said to be sitting en banc.
  • State: means the State of Delaware; and when applied to different parts of the United States, it includes the District of Columbia and the several territories and possessions of the United States. See Delaware Code Title 1 Sec. 302
  • Statute: A law passed by a legislature.
