Notice of appeal shall be given in open court at the time of the hearing or in writing within 10 days after entry of the order. However, if no disposition is made within 60 days after entry of the order, written notice of appeal may be given within 70 days after such entry. A final order shall include:\n(1) Any order finding absence of jurisdiction;\n(2) Any order which in effect determines the action and prevents a judgment from which appeal might be taken;\n(3) Any order of disposition after an adjudication that a juvenile is delinquent, undisciplined, abused, neglected, or dependent; or\n(4) Any order modifying custodial rights.\u201d\nWe believe that under this section of the statute an adjudication of delinquency is not a final order. No appeal may be taken from such order unless no disposition is made within 60 days of the adjudication of delinquency. In the instant case the respondent is attempting to appeal from an adjudication of delinquency eight days after the adjudication when no disposition has been made. This he cannot do.\nAppeal dismissed.\nJudges VAUGHN and HILL concur.",

Judgment entered 7 May 1981 in District Court, CUMBERLAND County. Heard in the Court of Appeals 10 December 1981.\nThis appeal arises from an adjudication on a petition filed in Juvenile Court alleging that the respondent committed an assault. After hearing evidence, the court adjudicated that the allegations contained in the petition were true and ordered that the disposition part of the hearing should proceed. No disposition was made. Eight days after the adjudication of delinquency, the respondent gave notice of appeal.\nAttorney General Edmisten, by Assistant Attorney General Grayson G. Kelly, for the State.\nAssistant Public Defender Staples Hughes for respondent appellant."
