Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department

846 N.Y.S.2d 589
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant, a sentenced federal prisoner, was produced from federal custody to appear in proceedings in Suffolk County with respect to the instant indictment. On appeal, he contends that his conviction should be reversed and the indictment dismissed because he was returned to federal custody prior to a trial on this indictment, and therefore Suffolk County violated his rights under article IV (e) of the Interstate Agreement on Detainers, which directs that an indictment be dismissed where “trial is not had” on such indictment “prior to the prisoner‘s [sic] being returned to the original place of imprisonment” (
