STATE v. HASKINS

No. 823SC589.

298 S.E.2d 188 (1982)

STATE of North Carolina v. Robert HASKINS, Jr.

Court of Appeals of North Carolina.

December 21, 1982.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Atty. Gen. Rufus L. Edmisten by Sp. Deputy Atty. Gen. John R.B. Matthis and Asst. Atty. Gen. James C. Gulick, Raleigh, for the State.

John H. Harmon, New Bern, for defendant-appellant.


WHICHARD, Judge.

Defendant contends the court erred in denying his motion to dismiss. He argues the evidence failed to establish that he possessed stolen property "knowing or having reasonable grounds to believe the same to have been feloniously stolen or taken," as required by G.S. 14-71.1.

The requisite guilty knowledge may be inferred from incriminating circumstances. See State v. Allen, 45 N.C. App. 417, 421, 263 S.E.2d 630
