We agree with that court, and for the reasons stated in its memorandum decision (70 AD2d 890), that the October 15,1976 amendment of the wiretap warrant to cover bribe-related conversations was not obtained “as soon as practicable” as required by the statute (CPL 700.65, subd 4). Accordingly, evidence seized pursuant to . that amendment was properly suppressed.
