Judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County, rendered May 3, 1966, affirmed. In our opinion, defendant was not deprived of his rights under section 480 of the Code of Criminal Procedure. The proper allocution was rendered by the clerk upon both the initial sentencing and the resentencing necessitated by the earlier imposition of an incorrect sentence. On both occasions defendant indicated that he desired to have Ms attorney speak for him (see People v. Kadin, 23 A D 2d 699). When, upon the initial arraignment, the court properly refused to confer with defendant in chambers, it was obvious that defendant had the opportunity to express himself in open court if he so • desired. There is no indication in the record that defendant, upon resentenee, renewed Ms request personally to address the court. In any event, no such opportunity had to be afforded him at that time. The requirements of section 480 do not extend to a resentencing conducted for the purpose of correcting an earlier sentence, particularly where, as here, the resentencing was conducted shortly after the initial sentencing (People v. Waterman, 5 A D 2d 717). Moreover, it does not appear that the requirements of section 480 or the common law from wMch the statute has been derived have been extended to misdemeanor proceedings (People v. Kaminsky, 208 N. Y. 389). Beldoek, P. J., Christ, Brennan, Rabin and Hopkins, JJ., concur.
