State v. Pineda
Docket: No. 70PA16
Court: Supreme Court of North Carolina; June 9, 2016; North Carolina; State Supreme Court
The Court of Appeals found Pineda guilty of trafficking heroin through sale and delivery, violating N.C. Gen. Stat. 90-95(a)(1). However, the Record on Appeal indicates that the conviction was actually under N.C.G.S. 90-95(h)(4). The State's petition for discretionary review is granted, and the case is remanded to the Court of Appeals for reconsideration based on the correct statute of conviction. This order was issued on June 9, 2016.
