The defendant's petition for certification for appeal from the Appellate Court, 151 Conn.App. 763, 96 A.3d 607, is granted, limited to the following issues:
“1. Did the Appellate Court properly determine that the record was not adequate for appellate review of the defendant's claim that he was seized when Sergeant Ronald Mercado commanded him to stop?
“2. Did the Appellate Court properly determine that the defendant was not seized until police officers conducted a patdown search of the defendant's person?”
