In a coram nobis proceeding, defendant appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Queens County, entered July 15, 1964, which denied without a hearing his application (1) to vacate a judgment of the former County Court, Queens County, rendered November 19, 1947, convicting him of receiving stolen property, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence and (2) for resentencing. Order affirmed. No opinion.
On defendant’s appeal from the judgment of conviction he was represented by retained counsel who received a copy of the transcript of the trial minutes which had been purchased by defendant’s parents. On June 1, 1948 the appeal was dismissed on the calendar call, no record or brief having been filed and no one appearing for defendant. The papers before us contain uneontroverted proof that defendant was actually indigent during the period in which his appeal was pending and that in fact he was prevented from prosecuting his appeal by reason of such extant indigence, which rendered him unable to pay the expense of printing the record and brief. Under the circumstances, defendant is entitled to reinstatement of his appeal (see People v. Stanley, 12 N Y 2d 250; People v. Adams, 12 N Y 2d 417), even though he was represented by retained counsel and did not move to dispense with printing prior to dismissal (see People v. Ludwig, 23 A D 2d 497, revd. on dissenting opinion, 16 N Y 2d 1062).
