Description
[7 N.Y.2d 317 Page 318] Although it is the general rule that coram nobis will not lie to correct errors appearing on the face of the record (People
v. Sullivan, 3 N.Y.2d 196), this court recognized an exception in a case where the trial court denied to a defendant his right
to counsel of his own choice (People v. Silverman, 3 N.Y.2d 200, 202). Thus we wrote in the Silverman case: "Judicial interference
with the right to counsel guaranteed to defendant by law may warrant the extraordinary remedy of coram nobis, even though
the error appears on the face of the record" (p. 202).
