OPINION OF THE COURT Memorandum. The order of the Appellate Division should be affirmed. Upon remitting the matter for resentencing based on the sentencing court having—as a result of the parties’ mutual mistake—adjudicated defendant a second felony offender, the Appellate Division allowed the People to allege a different prior felony conviction as a basis for the adjudication. Citing Matter of Kisloff v Covington (73 NY2d 445, 452 [1989]), the Appellate Division correctly ruled that in the event defendant cannot properly be adjudicated a second felony offender, the People should not be permitted to withdraw their consent to defendant’s guilty plea. Chief Judge Kaye and Judges G.B.
