As our Supreme Court noted in State v. Greco, supra, 216 Conn. 282 , “[t]he United States Supreme Court found support for its conclusion that Congress intended multiple punishment for violations of two conspiracy statutes in the fact that the statutes were directed to separate evils presented by drug trafficking, namely importation and distribution.” (Internal quotation marks omitted.) Id., 295 ; see State v. Braswell, 42 Conn. App. 264, 270 , 679 A.2d 407 (1996), appeal dismissed, 243 Conn. 248 , 701 A.2d 1057 (1997).

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

After examining the record on appeal and considering the briefs and oral arguments of the parties, we have determined that the appeal in this case[*249] should be dismissed on the ground that certification was improvidently granted.[1]

The appeal is dismissed.

We granted the defendant’s petition for certification to appeal from the Appellate Court; State v. Braswell, 42 Conn. App. 264, 679 A.2d 973 (1996); limited to the following issue: “Whether the Appellate Court properly held that the defendant’s conviction and consecutive sentence for attempted sale of narcotics in violation of General Statutes §§ 21a-278 (b) and 53a-49 (a) and attempted delivery of narcotics to an inmate of a correctional institution in violation of General Statutes §§ 53a-174 (a) and 53a-49 (a) did not violate principles of double jeopardy?” State v. Braswell, 239 Conn. 917, 682 A.2d 1006 (1996).
