Head Matter:
The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v. Frank Tillman Lewis, Appellant.

Opinion:
In a coram nobis proceeding, defendant appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Kings County, entered January 29, 1964, which denied without a hearing his application to vacate a judgment of said court, rendered September 18, 1962, convicting him of attempted robbery in the third degree, unarmed, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence upon him as a second felony offender. Order affirmed. In our opinion, defendant was properly sentenced as a second felony offender. The Pennsylvania conviction upon which his second felony status was predicated was for a crime which would have been a felony if committed in New York (cf. Penal Law, § 1296, subd. 2).
