“Appellate review is limited to those questions “clearly” defined and “presented to the reviewing court” in the parties’ briefs, in which “arguments and authorities upon which the parties rely in support of their respective positions” are to be presented. See N.C.R. App. P. 28(a)[.]... “It is not the role of the appellate courts ... to create an appeal for an appellant,” nor is it “the duty of the appellate courts to supplement an appellant’s brief with legal authority or arguments not contained therein.””
3 later decisions quote this exact passage“It is not the role of the appellate courts . . . to create an appeal for an appellant,”
