We answer these questions in the negative.\nCounsel for defendants on this appeal did not represent them at trial. The defendants assert that their only assignment of error is the improper consolidation of the cases for trial. The record contains no exception. Under the circumstances, we have nevertheless considered on its merits the question defendants attempt to raise on appeal and find the defendants\u2019 position to be without merit.\nAffirmed.\nJudges Brock and Morris concur.",
