                           Decided:   February 19, 2016

Before STRINE, Chief Justice; HOLLAND, and SEITZ, Justices

                                     ORDER

      This 19th day of February 2016, it appears that the appellant Eladio Cruz

filed this appeal from a Superior Court order dated September 15, 2015, dismissing

his complaint. Cruz, a convicted felon serving a life sentence plus a term of 58

years,1 filed his complaint seeking $100,000 in damages from the President Judge

of the Superior Court because the Superior Court had “misled” him into believing

that he was eligible for parole.      This Court previously affirmed the Superior

Court’s denial of Cruz’s motion to correct his sentence to have a parole eligibility

appeal).
date set.2 His claim, therefore, is barred by the law of the case.3 Moreover, the

President Judge of the Superior Court enjoys absolute immunity from suit in this

case.4

         NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED that the judgment of the Superior

Court is AFFIRMED.

                                              BY THE COURT:
                                              /s/ Leo E. Strine, Jr.
