State v. Ricks, 244 N.C. App. 742 (Jan. 5, 2016)
Over a dissent, the court held that an obtaining property by false pretenses indictment was not defective where it alleged that the defendant obtained “a quantity of U.S currency” from the defendant. The court found that G.S. 15-149 (allegations regarding larceny of money) supported its holding.
There was dissenting opinion in this case.
