The assignment has no merit.\nIt is well established that a \u201cprayer for judgment continued\u201d is not a final judgment, therefore, it is not appealable. See State v. Griffin, 246 N.C. 680, 100 S.E. 2d 49 (1957) ; State v. Pledger, 257 N.C. 634, 127 S.E. 2d 337 (1962). Since prayer for judgment was continued on the felonious larceny charge, a final judgment was not entered on that charge and any error committed with respect thereto is not reviewable at this time.\nAs to the other assignments of error, we have reviewed the records and briefs and find that they too are without merit.\nNo error.\nJudges Hedrick and Baley concur.",

Certiorari was allowed on 16 May 1974 and the case was argued in the Court of Appeals on 18 September 1974.\nDefendant was charged in a two-count bill of indictment with (1) felonious breaking and entering and (2) felonious larceny. The jury returned a verdict of guilty as charged. The court entered judgment imposing a prison sentence on the felonious breaking and entering charge but continued prayer for judgment on the felonious larceny charge. Defendant appealed.\nAttorney General James H. Carson, Jr., by Assistant Attorney General Charles A. Lloyd, for the State.\nBobby G. Abrams for the defendant appellant."
