State v. Kirkman
Court of Appeals of North Carolina
1Opinion of the Court
STROUD, Judge.
*275 Defendant appeals order denying his motion to suppress and judgment for drug-related convictions. The trial court properly denied defendant's motion to suppress and had jurisdiction to correct defendant's sentence since defendant's defective notice of appeal did not divest the trial court of jurisdiction. But as the State concedes, the trial court erred by not giving defendant an opportunity to withdraw his plea upon resentencing him. As explained in more detail below, we therefore affirm the order denying the motion to suppress but reverse the judgment and remand.
