State v. Norfleet
Court of Appeals of North Carolina
1Opinion of the Court
VAUGHN, Chief Judge.
At trial, Ms. Woods’ sister testified that she had never had any difficulty with Robin lying to her. Defendant now contends that this testimony was improperly admitted in that it was the witness’ opinion of her sister’s character. We find no merit in defendant’s contention.
Defendant, at trial, did not object nor move to strike the testimony now cited as incompetent. Failure to object in apt time, even if testimony be incompetent, results in a waiver, and such testimony may be considered for whatever probative value it may have. State v. Blackwell, 276 N.C. 714, 174 S.E. 2d…
