      Andrew B. Bowman, in support of the petition.
    
      Michael E. O’Hare, deputy assistant state’s attorney, in opposition.
    Decided April 3, 1997
   The defendant’s petition for certification for appeal from the Appellate Court, 44 Conn. App. 294 (AC 14975), is granted, limited to the following issue:

“Whether the Appellate Court properly held that (1) the evidence of the defendant’s alleged marriage in New Jersey did not establish a valid marriage under Connecticut law; and (2) as such, the evidence presented at the defendant’s trial was sufficient to convict the defendant?”

BORDEN, J., did not participate in the consideration or decision of the petition.
