   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 March 16, 1998 (People v Douglas, 248 AD2d 550 [1998]), affirming a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County, rendered August 1, 1996.

Ordered that the application is denied.
