State v. Fox

Court of Appeals of North Carolina

1Opinion of the Court

HUNTER, JR., ROBERT N., Judge.

A jury convicted Garrett Fox ("Defendant") of two counts of trafficking by selling four grams or more but less than fourteen grams of opium or heroin. Defendant appeals a final judgment sentencing him to two consecutive terms of seventy to ninety-seven months imprisonment. Defendant contends the court committed plain error in admitting lay opinion testimony from a detective concerning the credibility of his informant and instructing the jury to decide a question the State conceded at trial. We hold the court did not plainly err.
