PER CURIAM.
The constitutional issue addressed in the Court of Appeals' majority opinion was not raised and preserved in the trial court and, therefore, was not properly before the Court of Appeals. N.C. R.App. P. 10(b)(1). Accordingly, the decision of the Court of Appeals as to the constitutional issue is reversed, and the case remanded to the Court of Appeals for determination of the remaining issues on their merits.
