People v. Carrasquillo

— Appeal from judgment, Supreme Court, New York County, rendered February 9, 1977, convicting defendant of robbery in the second degree and sentencing him to an indeterminate sentence of four to eight years, held in abeyance pending hearing in trial court and determination on defendant’s motion to suppress physical evidence and the matter remanded for such purposes. It was error to deny that part of defendant’s pretrial omnibus motion that sought suppression of certain physical evidence, alleged to have been the proceeds of the robbery for which defendant was convicted. Although the accompanying affidavit did not explicitly state that the police lacked probable cause, the facts set forth adequately complied with the requirements of CPL 710.60 (subd 1) and raised an issue entitling defendant to a hearing. (See CPL 710.60, subd 4.) The issue may not now be resolved by this court on the basis of the trial testimony. At a hearing addressed specifically to the issue raised by the motion to suppress, either or both parties may introduce additional evidence bearing on the question. (People v Williams, 46 AD2d 727; People v Werner, 55 AD2d 317.) Accordingly, the appeal is held in abeyance pending a hearing in the trial court and determination in accordance with CPL 710.60 (subd 4). Concur— Sandler, Bloom and Ross, JJ.
