Upon the papers filed in support of the motion and the papers filed in relation thereto, it is

ORDERED that the motion is denied as unnecessary, as the appellant was granted leave to proceed as a poor person in the Supreme Court and, pursuant to Correction Law § 168-n (3), his status as a poor person and the counsel assigned to represent him before the Supreme Court, Kings County, continues on appeal; and it is further,

ORDERED that the appeal will be heard on the original papers (including a certified transcript of the proceedings, if any) and on the appellant's and the respondent's briefs; the parties are directed to file nine copies of their respective briefs and to serve one copy on each other; and it is further,

v Henry Vega, appellant.

(Ind. No. 2792/99)

DECISION & ORDER ON MOTION

Motion by the appellant to enlarge the judgment roll on an appeal from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County, rendered March 6, 2002, to include, inter alia, the minutes of the first trial in the above-entitled matter.

Upon the papers filed in support of the motion and the papers filed in opposition or relation thereto, it is

ORDERED that the branch of the motion which is to enlarge the judgment roll to include the minutes of the first trial in the above-entitled matter is granted, and the motion is otherwise denied; and it is further

ORDERED that the order of this court dated December 16, 2002, which granted poor person relief to the appellant is amended to include a direction to the court reporter to make, certify and file two transcripts of the first trial in the above-entitled matter, if they are available, and the Clerk of the trial court is directed to furnish one copy to the appellant's counsel, without charge; and it is further,

ORDERED that in the event the stenographer has already prepared a transcript of the stenographic minutes of the proceedings during the first trial in the above-entitled matter for a codefendant, then the Clerk of the trial court is directed to reproduce a copy thereof for assigned counsel; and it is further,

ORDERED that the appellant's time to perfect the appeal is enlarged; assigned counsel shall prosecute the appeal expeditiously in accordance with this court's rules (22 NYCRR 670.1, et seq.) and written directions; and it is further,

ORDERED that assigned counsel is directed to serve a copy of this order upon the Clerk of the court from which the appeal is taken, and to deliver the transcript of the stenographic minutes of the proceedings during jury selection to the respondent when the appellant's brief is served.

Since the appeal has not yet been perfected, defendant's counsel may raise any contention arising from the proceedings recorded in the minutes of the jury selection in the defendant's main brief, and leave to file a supplemental brief is therefore denied as unnecessary.
