Reginald McFadden sought a writ of error coram nobis to vacate a prior decision by the Appellate Division, Second Department, claiming ineffective assistance of appellate counsel. The previous decision, dated May 3, 1999, addressed an appeal from a judgment rendered on September 7, 1995, by the County Court of Rockland County. The court denied McFadden's application, determining that he did not demonstrate he was deprived of effective assistance of appellate counsel, citing relevant case law (Jones v. Barnes and People v. Stultz). The decision was made by Justices Ruth C. Balkin, John M. Leventhal, Leonard B. Austin, and Sandra L. Sgroi, with Aprilanne Agostino serving as Clerk of the Court.
