The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v. John Watts, Appellant.

Opinion:
In a criminal action, the defendant appeals to this court from a judgment of the Criminal Court of the City of New York, Kings County (erroneously described in the notice ojf appeal as the " Special Sessions Court of Kings County"), rendered November 9, 1962, convicting him and imposing sentence. The appeal was erroneously taken to this court.

The appeal is,: therefore, transferred to said Appellate Term of the Supreme Court (see N. Y. Const., art. VI, § 5, subd. b; § 8, subd. d; Second Dept., Order No. 47,! July 12, 1962).
