PEOPLE v. BOOTH

Order affirmed. In our opinion the trial court was correct in denying the writ of error coram nobis until petitioner's sanity is restored (see People v. Cossentino, 14 N.Y.2d 750).

Concur: Chief Judge DESMOND and Judges VAN VOORHIS, BURKE, SCILEPPI, BERGAN and KEATING. Judge FULD dissents in the following memorandum: I do not believe that a defendant's mental condition disables him from seeking coram nobis relief. (Cf. Baxstrom v. Herold, 383 U.S. 107.) I would reverse and remand for a hearing on the merits.
