Supreme Court of North Carolina
State v. Geter
December 16, 2022
Summary
The Court held that the trial court retained jurisdiction to revoke defendant's probation after the probationary term expired because the statutory prerequisites were satisfied. It further held that the trial court properly determined, under an abuse-of-discretion standard, that good cause existed for the delayed revocation because the State awaited resolution of related criminal charges. The Court affirmed the appellate decision and gave full effect to the revocation judgments.
