Case Caption:
Thomas v. Government of the Virgin Islands et al
Case Number:
SCT-CIV-2019-0002
Date:
12/28/2022
Author:
Cabret, Maria M.
Citation:
2022 VI 22
Summary:
On a petition for writ of for habeas corpus which the Virgin Islands Superior Court dismissed in part and granted in part, the Superior Court's memorandum opinion denying relief for insufficient evidence to sustain the defendant’s conviction for third degree assault is affirmed. The petitioner failed to meet the heavy burden in advancing an insufficiency of the evidence claim. However, the Order staying Count VI of his conviction for simple assault is reversed; the Superior Court is directed, on remand, to dismiss count VI in accordance with the standard in Titre v. People, 2019 VI 3.
