Description
Appeal by defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County, rendered July 29, 1977, convicting him of manslaughter in the first degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence. By order dated February 5, 1979, this court affirmed the judgment, citing People v Payton (45 N.Y.2d 300) and People v Gordon (67 A.D.2d 931). Leave to appeal to the Court of Appeals was denied (People v Gordon, 46 N.Y.2d 1080). On April 21, 1980 the United States Supreme Court ""vacated the judgment"" and remanded the case to this court for further consideration in light of Payton v New York (445 U.S. 573, revg People v Payton, 45 N.Y.2d 300, supra), decided subsequent to the affirmance by this court (Gordon v New York, 446 U.S. 903). Judgment affirmed. We reaffirm our previous determination that the rule announced in Payton v New York (supra) should not be applied retroactively (People v Whitaker, 79 A.D.2d 668; see United States v Peltier, 422 U.S. 531; Desist v United States, 394 U.S. 244; Stovall v Denno, 388 U.S. 293; see, also, People v Gonzalez 80 A.D.2d 647). Accordingly, the judgment appealed from should be affirmed.
