CONCURRING OPINION

Chief Justice CAPPY.
I join the majority opinion. I write separately to distinguish this case from one in which a citizen in fact relies upon *268an erroneously printed criminal statutory enactment. Such a case, in my view, may implicate different legal concerns than those present in this appeal. See, e.g., John T. Parry, Culpability, Mistake, and Official Interpretations of Law, 25 Am. J.Crim. L. 1 (Fall 1997); Joseph E. Murphy, The Duty of the Government to Make the Law Known, 51 Fordham L.Rev. 255 (1982); Comment: People v. Marrero and Mistake of Law, 54 Brooklyn L.Rev. 229 (Spring 1988).
