In this episode, Hyde and Holbrook discuss three cases decided by the North Carolina Court of Appeals on November 5 and 19, 2025. In State v. Johnson, No. COA24-1126 (N.C. Ct. App. Nov. 5, 2025), the Court of Appeals found no error in the denial of the defendant’s request for individual voir dire of prospective jurors. In State v. Vaughn, No. COA24-1089 (N.C. Ct. App. Nov. 19, 2025), the Court of Appeals found reversible error in the trial court’s failure to instruct the jury on all the elements of attempt. And In State v. Matthews, No. COA24-961 (N.C. Ct. App. Nov. 19, 2025), the Court of Appeals found insufficient evidence of communicating threats when the State’s evidence failed to show that one victim believed the threat would be carried out.
