In State v. Chapman, 343 N.C. 495, 471 S.E.2d 354 (1996), the Court found, and the State conceded, that the defendant was not advised of his right to communicate with friends. However, as the defendant had been given his Miranda warnings before he confessed to committing several crimes, the Court, "based on the language of Curmon, concluded that the defendant was not prejudiced by the failure to advise him of his right to communicate with his friends." Id. at 499, 471 S.E.2d at 356.
