While her appeal to this Court was pending, defendant filed a motion for appropriate relief pursuant to G.S. 15A-1415(b)(6) and 15A-1418 on the grounds that defendant had obtained newly-discovered evidence which has a direct and material bearing on the guilt or innocence of defendant. Having reviewed this motion for appropriate relief, we hold that the defendant must receive a new trial on the grounds of newly-discovered evidence.
New trial.
