New Publication on Habitual Felon, Violent Habitual Felon, and Habitual Breaking and Entering

I recently finished an Administration of Justice Bulletin about the habitual felon, violent habitual felon, and habitual breaking and entering laws. It’s a substantial expansion and revision of a paper I wrote in 2008. I creatively named it North Carolina’s Habitual Felon, Violent Habitual Felon, and Habitual Breaking and Entering Laws. It’s available here, for free, in PDF format. I hope it’s useful. As always, I welcome comments and feedback of any kind about the paper. It doesn’t address the brand-new armed habitual felon law, created by S.L. 2013-369, effective October 1, 2013, but that law is patterned after the habitual felon law so many of the interpretive issues will be the same.

  1. What is the new habitual felon law ? What does it mean exactly? What does if mean for offenders already convicted of class h/I habitual felon ?
