    The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v. John Allen, Appellant.
   In a coram nobis proceeding, defendant appeals from an order of the former County Court, Kings County, dated April 10, 1962, which denied, without a hearing, his application to ¡ vacate a judgment of said court, rendered March 12, 1957 after a jury trial, convicting him of first degree robbery, second degree assault, and second degree grand larceny, and sentencing him to serve a term of 10 to 20 years, plus 5 to ip years for being armed. The additional punishment was struck out on appeal (5 A D 2d 696). Order affirmed. At defendant’s first trial in October, 1956, a jury was impaneled and sworn and opening statements were made. However, a mistrial was declared before any evidence was given or any witness sworn. The question of former jeopardy was not raised at defendant’s second trial in January, 1957. The present application for coram nobis is made on the ground that the 1957 conviction is void because of double jeopardy. It is not necessary here to determine whether a prisoner is placed in jeopardy when a jury has been examined and sworn, and evidence given (People ex rel. Meyer v. Warden, 269 N. Y. 426; Matter of Nolan v. Court of Gen. Sessions, 15 A D 2d 78, 82; King v. People, 5 Hun 297, 299); or whether he is placed in jeopardy as soon as the jury has been impaneled and sworn (People ex rel. Rosebrough v. Casey, 251 App. Div. 867; People ex rel. Bullock v. Hayes, 166 App. Div. 507, 510, affd. 215 N. Y. 172; 1 Cooley, Constitutional Limitations [8th ed.], pp. 686-687). Regardless of which rule may be correct, the defendant here waived his right ¡to argue double jeopardy when he failed to raise the question at his second trial (People v. Cignarale, 110 N. Y. 23, 29; People v. McGrath, 202 N. Y. 445; People ex rel. Hetenyi v. Johnston, 10 A D 2d 121). In any event, the question pf double jeopardy was a matter of record, and matters of record cannot be a basis for relief by way of coram nobis (People v. Sadness, 300 N. Y. 69; People v. Kendricks, 300 N. Y. 544). Beldoek, P. J., Ughetta, Brennan, Hill and Hopkins, JJ., concur.
