The record in this case consists of the warrant, the defendant\u2019s plea of not guilty, the evidence offered at trial, the jury verdict of guilty, and the judgment imposed. We have carefully reviewed this record and find no error.\nNo error.\nJudges Britt and Vaughn concur.",

    "head_matter": "STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA v. KENNETH D. HALL\nNo. 744SC738\n(Filed 6 November 1974)\nCriminal Law \u00a7 166\u2014 assignments of error abandoned\n. Assignments of error not argued in defendant\u2019s brief are deemed abandoned. Court of Appeals Rule 28.\nAppeal by defendant from Cowper, Judge, 20 May 1974 Session of Onslow County Superior Court. Submitted 14 October 1974 on briefs to the Court of Appeals pursuant to Court of Appeals Rule 10.\nDefendant was charged in warrants dated 23 March' 1974 with careless and reckless driving, failure to reduce speed to avoid an accident, driving while under the influence of intoxicating liquor, and hit and run. The defendant pleaded not guilty.\nThe State\u2019s evidence tended to show that two Marines were riding on a motorcycle on U. S. 17; that after stopping at a stoplight beside a Cadillac, which the defendant was driving, they proceeded north; that they accelerated down the road and changed lanes so as to be driving in front of the defendant; that the defendant pulled into the left lane beside them and began easing over toward the motorcycle; that he eventually hit them causing the motorcycle to crash producing some $779 damage; that the Cadillac sped off without stopping; that some other people chased after it and got the license number; that they returned and gave the number to the police officer at the scene; and that said officer went out and arrested the defendant.\nThe defendant\u2019s evidence was to the effect that he was not driving the car that day. He offered two witnesses in corroboration.\nThe case was submitted to the jury on the issues of careless and reckless driving and leaving the scene. The judge had previously granted the defendant\u2019s motion as of nonsuit on the issues of failure to reduce speed and driving while under the influence. From a verdict of guilty on both counts and a judgment sentencing the defendant to twelve months in county jail, the defendant appeals.\nAttorney General James H. Carson, Jr., by Assistant Attorney General Myron C. Banks for the State.\nEdward G. Bailey for defendant appellant."
