    The People of the State of New York, Appellant, v Thaddeus Thurmond, Respondent.
    [661 NYS2d 48]
   Appeal by the People, as limited by their brief, from so much of an order of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Rotker, J.), dated December 12, 1995, as granted without a hearing that branch of the defendant’s omnibus motion which was to suppress identification testimony.

Ordered that the order is reversed insofar as appealed from, on the law, and the matter is remitted to the Supreme Court, Queens County, for a hearing and a new determination on that branch of the defendant’s omnibus motion which was to suppress identification testimony.

After the People had twice failed to honor the trial court’s directives to furnish an answer to the defendant’s omnibus motion, the court properly deemed the factual allegations made by the defendant in his motion to be true (see, People v Gruden, 42 NY2d 214). Those boilerplate allegations, however, did not comply with the requirements of CPL 710. 60 (1), and consequently, the court erred in summarily granting the motion (see, CPL 710.60 [2] [a]; [3] [b]; People v Mendoza, 82 NY2d 415). Rosenblatt, J. P., Miller, Altman and Goldstein, JJ., concur.
