In the Matter of M.J.G., 234 N.C. App. 350 (2014)

Held: 
Affirmed

In an assault case, the trial court ordered as a condition of the disposition that the juvenile’s parents attend parenting classes. Following the entry of the disposition, the juvenile’s attorney informed the court that the juvenile’s mother wanted “to say a few words.” Assuming arguendo that the trial court violated G.S. 7B-2501(b) by failing to give the juvenile’s mother an opportunity to speak before entering the disposition, any error was harmless given that the juvenile’s mother did not object to the disposition when she was, ultimately, permitted to speak.
