A wobbler is a criminal offense (crime) that may be charged by the prosecutor and sentenced by the judge as either a misdemeanor offense or a felony offense under applicable law.
In the state of Delaware, the concept of a 'wobbler' is not formally recognized as it is in some other jurisdictions. Delaware law does not use the term 'wobbler' to describe offenses that can be charged as either misdemeanors or felonies. Instead, Delaware statutes define specific crimes and the corresponding level of the offense. However, prosecutors do have discretion in charging decisions and may choose to charge a defendant with a lesser offense if circumstances warrant. Additionally, judges have discretion during sentencing to consider various factors that could affect the severity of the sentence. It is important for individuals facing criminal charges in Delaware to consult with an attorney who can provide guidance on the specific charges and potential outcomes based on Delaware law.
