1. I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-Q of Salisbury Bancorp,
Inc.;

2. Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of a

4. The registrant's other certifying officer and I are responsible for
establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in
Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the registrant and have:

      a)    designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such
            disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our
            supervision, to ensure that material information relating to the
            registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known
            to us by others within those entities, particularly during the
            period in which this report is being prepared;

      a)    all significant deficiencies and material weakness in the design or
            operation of internal control over financial reporting which are
            reasonably likely to adversely affect the registrant's ability to
            record, process, summarize and report financial information; and

      b)    any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or
            other employees who have a significant role in the registrant's
            internal control over financial reporting.

RE: Product Exclusion Request Number: USTR-2018-0025-2171

JMW Sales, Inc.:

The purpose of this letter is to inform you that the product exclusion request referenced 

above has been denied. As you are aware, USTR published a Federal Register notice (83 FR 

28710) on June 20, 2018, that announced the Trade Representative’s determination to impose an 

additional duty of 25 percent on certain products from China. On July 11, 2018, the Trade 

Representative published a Federal Register notice (83 FR 32181) which announced that a 

process had been established under which interested persons could request that products falling 

within a covered HTSUS subheading be excluded from the additional duties announced on June 

20. 

Your request was reviewed in accordance with the factors and procedures set forth in 

Section B(1) of the July 11 notice. Based on that review, and after careful consideration, your 

request was denied because the request did not contain a sufficient product identification or was 

determined to be non-administrable.

Because USTR will grant exclusion requests on a product specific basis, you may still 

benefit from a product exclusion if a similar product is granted an exclusion. Products for which 

an exclusion has been granted will be periodically announced on the USTR website. Product 

exclusions will become legally effective once published in the Federal Register.

(Filed 21 October, 1959.)

1. Criminal Daw § 94—

Questions asked a witness by tbe court *held*merely of a clarifying nature and not to constitute an expression of opinion by the court on the weight or credibility of the testimony. G.S. 1-180.

Higgins, J., not sitting.

Appeal by defendant from *Morris, J.,*June Term, 1959, of Wayne.

Defendant was tried and convicted in the Recorder’s Court of Wayne County upon a warrant charging that he operated a motor vehicle upon the public highways within that county on 18 May, 1958, while under the influence of intoxicating liquor. He appealed to Superior Court and upon a plea of not guilty therein was tried upon said warrant *de novo.*A jury was duly selected and empanelled. Evidence was offered both by the State and defendant. The jury returned a verdict of guilty.

From judgment imposing a prison sentence defendant appealed and •assigned error.

*Attorney General Seawell and Assistant Attorney General Love for the State.*

*Edmundson and Edmundson for defendant, appellant.*

PER Ctjeiam.

The sole assignment of error relates to the interrogation of a defense witness by the court. Defendant contends that it amounted to an “expression of ... opinion on the weight and credibility *94of the testimony” of the witness. G.S. 1-180. A careful consideration of the challenged questions and the responses thereto leads to the definite conclusion that questions asked by the court were merely of a clarifying nature. *State v. Stevens,*244 N.C. 40, 44, 92 S.E. 2d 409. To be entitled to a new trial defendant must show prejudice. *State v. Creech,*229 N.C. 662, 672, 51 S.E. 2d 348. No prejudicial error has been shown.

I am pleased to notify you that the United States Trade Representative has determined to 

grant the above-referenced exclusion request submitted pursuant to the notice published at 83 FR 

32181 (‘July 11 notice’). The exclusion determination is set out in a formal notice which has

The scope of the exclusion is governed by the formal HTSUS language in the annex to

.

A ppellant challenges his adjudication of delinquency for trespassing on school grounds pursuant to section 810.097(1), Florida Statutes . Appellant contends the State failed to present a

pr ima facie case of guilt because there was no evidence appellant was on school grounds for an illegitimate purpose. We agree.

The State presented video surveillance evidence from Rickards High School and GPS data from appellant’s electronic monitoring devic e to show that appellant was on the grounds of Rickard s High in a white car that drove by the front office. There

wa s no evidence the car stopped or was anywhere other than the public driveway for a very short period of time. The s chool’s assistant princip al testified that appellant was not a registered2 student and did not check in with the front office. This evidence alone, however, does not prove that appellant was on school grounds for an illegitimate purpose.

Since the State failed to provide evidence o f an essential element of the offense, we are required to R EVERSE and R EMAND with directions for the trial court to vacate appellant’s adjudication of delinquency for trespass ing on school grounds.
