Opinion
June 10, 1997
Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County (Richard Carruthers, J., at Wade hearing; Clifford Scott, J., at plea and sentence).
The hearing court properly denied defendant's request to reopen the hearing for testimony from the identifying witnesses since defendant's claim regarding suggestiveness was purely speculative ( People v. Chipp, 75 N.Y.2d 327, cert denied 498 U.S. 833).
Concur — Sullivan, J.P., Milonas, Rosenberger, Ellerin and Mazzarelli, JJ.
