The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v. Gordon Cooke and Winston A. Sealy, Appellants.
Submitted May 17, 1943;
decided May 27, 1943.
Oliver D. Williams, Philip J. Jones and Ben Shorr for motion.
Walter R. Hart opposed.

The trial court had power to make a new assignment of counsel after sentence, but before notice of appeal was filed. (People v. Price, 262 N. Y. 410 .) The motion made by the original counsel to be assigned by this court to prosecute the appeal is denied, but without prejudice to a motion by the defendant for good cause for a change of assigned counsel.

Motion denied, etc.
