The petition by the state of Connecticut for certification for appeal from the Appellate Court, 133 Conn.App. 140, 34 A.3d 1007 (AC 32597), is granted, limited to the following issues:
“1. Did the Appellate Court properly determine that the trial court abused its discretion in denying the defendant's motion to correct an illegal sentence?
“2. If the answer to question one is in the affirmative, did the Appellate Court properly determine that the appropriate remedy was to remand the case for resentencing, rather than to vacate the defendant's guilty pleas?”
