                          Opinion

   PER CURIAM. The defendant, Nuno Miranda,
pleaded guilty to one count each of strangulation in the
second degree in violation of General Statutes § 53a-
64bb and unlawful restraint in the first degree in viola-
tion of General Statutes § 53a-95. The trial court ren-
dered judgment in accordance with the pleas and
sentenced the defendant to consecutive terms of four
years of incarceration, suspended after two years, and
three years of probation, for a total effective sentence
of eight years of incarceration, suspended after four
years, and three years of probation. The defendant sub-
sequently filed a motion pursuant to Practice Book § 43-
22 to correct an illegal sentence. The defendant argued,
inter alia, that his sentence was illegal because it was
imposed on separate convictions for what he claimed
was ‘‘the same incident’’ and, therefore, it violated the
terms of the strangulation statute which provides in
relevant part that ‘‘[n]o person shall be found guilty of
strangulation in the second degree and unlawful
restraint or assault upon the same incident . . . .’’ Gen-
eral Statutes § 53a-64bb (b). The trial court denied the
motion, concluding that each of the defendant’s pleas
and resulting sentences was based on a separate inci-
dent within the meaning of § 53a-64bb (b). The defen-
dant then appealed to the Appellate Court, which
affirmed the judgment of the trial court. State v.
Miranda, 142 Conn. App. 657, 666, 64 A.3d 1268 (2013).
Thereafter, we granted the defendant’s petition for cer-
tification to appeal, limited to the following issue: ‘‘Did
the Appellate Court properly determine that the sen-
tence imposed by the trial court was not illegal pursuant
to . . . § 53a-64bb?’’ State v. Miranda, 310 Conn. 902,
75 A.3d 29 (2013).
  After examining the entire record on appeal and con-
sidering the briefs and oral arguments of the parties,
we have determined that the appeal in this case should
be dismissed on the ground that certification was
improvidently granted.
  The appeal is dismissed.
