Opinion
Order reversed and a hearing directed. The factual allegations of coercion by the Judge and District Attorney leading to a plea of guilty are not traversed by the District Attorney and are sufficient on their face to require a hearing (People v. Picciotti, 4 N Y 2d 340; People v. Guariglia, 303 N. Y. 338; People v. Pearson, 12 N Y 2d 978).
Concur: Chief Judge Desmond and Judges Dye, Fuld, Burke and Bergan. Judges Van Voorhis and Scileppi dissent and vote to affirm.
