People v. Robinson

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Dec 4, 1961
15 A.D.2d 504 (N.Y. App. Div. 1961)

Opinion

December 4, 1961


Appeals by defendant from orders of the County Court, Queens County, dated respectively January 31, 1961 and March 15, 1961, denying, without a hearing, his coram nobis applications to vacate a judgment of said court rendered February 20, 1956, on his plea of guilty, convicting him of robbery in the third degree, armed, and sentencing him to serve a term of 6 to 20 years. Under an indictment charging robbery in the first degree while armed with a pistol, and other crimes, defendant pleaded guilty of, "Robbery in the Third Degree, Armed," in satisfaction of the entire indictment. He was sentenced to a prison term of 1 to 10 years for robbery in the third degree; and, under section 1944 of the Penal Law, he was sentenced to an additional consecutive term of 5 to 10 years, for being armed. Defendant contends that the additional punishment was unauthorized and in violation of due process, and that a hearing should be held on his coram nobis applications to vacate the sentence. Orders affirmed. No opinion. Nolan, P.J., Ughetta, Christ, Pette and Brennan, JJ., concur.
