Description
We first note that defendant Thomas failed to set out and discuss his eighth assignment of error in his appellate brief; defendant King failed to set out and discuss his third, fourth, eighth, sixteenth and seventeenth assignments of error in his appellate brief; and defendant Christmas failed to set out and discuss his fourth, sixth, sixteenth, eighteenth and twenty-first assignments of error in his appellate brief, thereby abandoning them. Rule 28(a), N.C. Rules App. Proc. In addition, defendant King failed to set forth any argument or authority for his fifth assignment of error in his appellate brief, therefore it is also deemed abandoned. Id. "App. R. 28(a) requires that a question be presented and argued in the brief in order to obtain appellate review." Love v. Pressley, 34 N.C.
