Defendant contends that the Superior Court erred in failing to review the record of his original trial in the District Court at which he entered a plea of guilty to possession of marijuana. He also asserts that the evidence was not sufficient to support the finding of the Superior Court that he had violated the terms of his probation. We find no merit in either of these contentions.
G.S. 90-96 in cases involving possession of marijuana provides :
"... [T]he court may without entering a judgment of guilt and with the consent of such person, defer further proceedings and place him on probation upon such reasonable terms and conditions as it may require. Upon violation of a term or condition, the court may enter an adjudication of guilt and proceed as otherwise provided. ...” (Emphasis added.)
G.S. 90-96 is applicable only to first offenders and is clearly for the purpose of permitting the trial court to grant probation under conditions favorable to defendant. When defendant consents to the terms of the probation, he abandons his right to appeal on the issue of guilt or innocence and commits himself to abide by the stipulated conditions. State v. Miller, 225 N.C. 213, 34 S.E. 2d 143.
In this case defendant signed an attachment to the order of the District Court which certified to his understanding of its meaning and his consent to its terms. The terms imposed as a part of the two years’ probation were of such character that they constituted punishment. Defendant was required to pay court costs and a fine of $300.00 in addition to other provisions of the probation concerning good behavior. He consented to these terms upon which entry of judgment of guilt was deferred and waived or abandoned his right of appeal. State v. Griffin, 246 N.C. 680, 100 S.E. 2d 49.
When the district court revokes a defendant’s probation and sentences him to prison, the defendant may then appeal to superior court for a de novo hearing upon the revocation of his probation. G.S. 15-200.1; State v. Coffey, 255 N.C. 293, 121 S.E. 2d 736. However, the only issue before the superior court on such appeal is “whether or not there has been a violation *397of the terms of probation.” G.S. 15-200.1. A defendant on appeal from an order revoking probation may not challenge his adjudication of guilt. See State v. Notes, 12 N.C. App. 676, 184 S.E. 2d 409; State v. Caudle, 276 N.C. 550, 173 S.E. 2d 778. Thus the Superior Court of Beaufort County was not required to review the record of defendant’s original trial for possession of marijuana.
The decision to revoke defendant’s probation is clearly supported by competent evidence. Charles Hough, the probation officer in charge of defendant, testified that defendant had not been employed since he graduated from high school; that he had not made payments on the fine imposed by the District Court; that he had associated with Phil Foreman and Carol Selby, two disreputable persons who used drugs; and that on one occasion when Hough saw defendant, in his opinion defendant was under the influence of marijuana. This testimony amply supports Judge Godwin’s findings of fact and his conclusion that defendant had violated the terms of his probation. .
The order of the Superior Court revoking the probation of defendant is affirmed.
Affirmed.
Chief Judge Brock and Judge Parker concur.
