Instructions: Read-only access to the North Carolina General Statutes, mirrored from ncleg.gov and refreshed weekly. Search the statute book by subject when you have no citation (), read any section by citation () — including single rules of the Rules of Evidence and Civil Procedure as "8C-1, Rule 104" or "1A-1, Rule 12" — and follow the legislature's own record of how it changed — amendment history back to the 1800s, word-level diffs between versions, text enacted but not yet effective, and the citation graph in both directions.
TWO LIMITS THAT MATTER FOR EVERY ANSWER. This mirrors the CODIFIED text, which LAGS enacted law: every response carries codified_through, session_laws_through and modifications_through so you can see how far behind it is, and a section missing from the codified text may still have been enacted. And it covers codified statutes and ENACTED session laws only — a bill that has passed or is awaiting signature is in none of it, so an absence here is never evidence that a bill did not pass. Send those questions to the General Assembly's bill status at ncleg.gov.
North Carolina only. Read-only. Raw statute text, not legal advice — annotations, case notes and editor's notes are not included.
