2. “In a criminal case . . . North Carolina requires the State to prove jurisdiction beyond a reasonable doubt. In the absence of a file stamped motion or any other evidence of the motion’s timely filing as required by N.C.G.S. § 15A-1344C0C1) the trial court is without jurisdiction. On appeal, when the record shows a lack of jurisdiction in the lower court, the appropriate action on the part of the appellate court is to arrest judgment or vacate any order entered without authority.”
