The defendant's petition for certification for appeal from the Appellate Court, 150 Conn.App. 637, 91 A.3d 958, is granted, limited to the following issues:
“1. Did the Appellate Court properly determine that the in-court identification procedure used at trial was proper under this court's decision in State v. Smith, 200 Conn. 465, 512 A.2d 189 (1986), and, if so, should the Smith precedent be overturned?
