ID Nos. 92007631DI and 92000865DI Submitted: March 4, 2002 Decided: March 19, 2002 Before VEASEY, Chief Justice, WALSH, and STEELE, Justices. ORDER This 19th day of March 2002, it appears to the Court that the defendant-appellant, Samuel Adams, filed this appeal on October 26, 2001 from the Superior Court s adjudication and sentence for Adams violation of probation (VOP). The record reflects that the Superior Court issued a modification of its VOP sentencing order on November 29, 2001. That order reflected that Adams Level V prison sentence was to be suspended immediately for time served and that no probation would follow.
