An Act To Amend Title 11 Of The Delaware Code Relating To The Penalties For And Classification Of Carrying A Concealed Deadly Weapon. [HB-115]
This Act increases the penalties for carrying a concealed deadly weapon, when the weapon is a firearm, by reclassifying what is currently a class G felony as a class D violent felony. The Act also deletes a penalty provision that is unnecessary and duplicative, since any person previously convicted of a violation of section 1442 is also a person prohibited under section 1448 of Title 11.
