AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 10 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO APPEALS.

This bill adopts an inmate mailbox rule similar to the federal inmate mailbox rule. If a pro se inmate files an appeal while incarcerated, the date of filing will be counted as the date that that the inmate gave the appeal to the DOC officials for mailing rather than the date that the Courts receive the appeal.
