    [782 NYS2d 651]
   Application by the appellant for a writ of error coram nobis to vacate, on the ground of ineffective assistance of appellate counsel, a decision and order of this Court dated December 28, 1998 (People v Thigpen, 256 AD2d 601 [1998]), affirming a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County, rendered April 15, 1996.

Ordered that the application is denied.

The appellant has failed to establish that he was denied the effective assistance of appellate counsel (see Jones v Barnes, 463 US 745 [1983]; People v Stultz, 2 NY3d 277 [2004]). Prudenti, P.J., Ritter, Krausman and Goldstein, JJ., concur.
