Description

Memorandum. The order should be affirmed on the merits. Section 1943 of the Penal Law, as amended in 1964 (L. 1964, ch. 446), now requires our courts to give relief when it appears that a defendant's previous out-of-State conviction ""was obtained in violation of [his] rights * * * under the applicable provisions of the constitution of the United States"" and has been utilized as a predicate for multiple offender treatment. In view of this amendment to the statute, the defendant is unquestionably seeking to correct an error by our courts in treating him as a multiple offender. Accordingly, we deem the application made by the defendant to be one for coram nobis relief. So regarded, it is appealable (Code Crim. Pro., Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â§ 517).
