1976In State v. Gaiten, 277 N.C. 236, 239 , 176 S.E. 2d 778, 781 (1970), we held: “ . . . [A] defendant may waive the benefit of statutory or constitutional provisions by express consent, failure to assert it in apt time, or by conduct inconsistent with a purpose to insist upon it. [Citations omitted.]” A corollary to this rule is that, generally, in order for an appellant to assert a constitutional or statutory right in the appellate courts, the right must have been asserted and the issue raised before the trial court.

2016We held that the respondents had failed to demonstrate that the lack of a hearing transcript prejudiced them given that it was "apparent from the pleadings and assignments of error that [the appellants'] reliance from the outset has been on the unconstitutionality of the statutes proceeded under, rather than on any evidence of their's or any weakness in the petitioner's evidence." Id. at 138 , 306 S.E.2d at 827 . *21 Thus, the issues raised by the appellants in Wright were unrelated to the substance of the evidence actually presented at the hearing.
