Appeal by the defendant from an order of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Kohm, J.), dated January 24, 2013, which, after a hearing, denied his motion for resentencing pursuant to CPL 440.46 on his conviction of criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree, which sentence was originally imposed by the same court (Pitaro, J.), upon a jury verdict, on July 10, 1996.
