                                  Opinion

   ZARELLA, J. The defendant, Terry P. Herring, appeals
from the judgment of the Appellate Court affirming his
conviction, rendered after a jury trial, of conspiracy
to distribute one kilogram or more of a cannabis-type
substance in violation of General Statutes §§ 21a-278
(b) and 53a-48, and possession of one kilogram or more
of a cannabis-type substance with intent to sell as an
accessory in violation of § 21a-278 (b) and General Stat-
utes § 53a-8. State v. Herring, 151 Conn. App. 154, 155,
173, 94 A.3d 688 (2014). The Appellate Court concluded,
inter alia, that, under the waiver rule announced in State
v. Kitchens, 299 Conn. 447, 482–83, 10 A.3d 942 (2011),
the defendant failed to preserve his claim that the trial
court had incorrectly instructed the jury on the state
of mind required to find him guilty of both offenses.1
See State v. Herring, supra, 170–71. On appeal to this
court, the defendant does not challenge the Appellate
Court’s conclusion that he waived his jury instruction
claim under Kitchens. Instead, he requests that the
waiver rule in Kitchens be overturned and that his claim
be reviewed under State v. Golding, 213 Conn. 233,
239–40, 567 A.2d 823 (1989).2 He contends that, if this
court reviews his claim under Golding, he would prevail
because the trial court’s instruction resulted in harmful
error. In the alternative, the defendant seeks review
under the plain error doctrine. Our resolution of the
defendant’s request to overturn the waiver rule is con-
trolled by our decision in State v. Bellamy, 323 Conn.
400, 403,       A.3d      (2016), in which we considered
the rule’s continued viability and concluded that it
should not be overturned. Accordingly, we reject the
defendant’s request to overturn the waiver rule in Kitch-
ens and to review his jury instruction claim under Gold-
ing. We also decline to review his claim under the plain
error doctrine because such review is beyond the scope
of the certified question.3
      The judgment of the Appellate Court is affirmed.
      In this opinion the other justices concurred.
  1
      The defendant claimed on appeal to the Appellate Court, and continues
to claim in his brief to this court, that the trial court’s jury instructions
‘‘lowered the state’s burden of proof on both counts and misled the jury’’
because they included ‘‘objective ‘reasonable person’ language in [their]
definition of knowingly, which, by statute, is defined as ‘awareness,’ a purely
subjective determination.’’
    2
      We note that the parties in State v. Bellamy, 323 Conn. 400,        A.3d
       (2016), asked this court to adopt the arguments made by the parties
and their amicus in the present appeal. See id., 476 n.11.
    3
      We granted the defendant’s petition for certification to appeal, limited
to the following questions: ‘‘Should this court overrule [Kitchens], thereby
permitting review of the defendant’s unpreserved claim of instructional
impropriety? If so, is the defendant entitled to prevail on that claim under
[Golding]?’’ State v. Herring, 314 Conn. 914, 100 A.3d 849 (2014).
    We also note that the issue of whether waiver under Kitchens precludes
plain error review is presently before this court in another pending appeal.
See State v. McClain, 319 Conn. 902, 122 A.3d 637 (2015) (granting certifica-
tion to review issue of whether ‘‘the Appellate Court properly determine[d]
that an implied waiver of a claim of instructional error that satisfies [Kitch-
ens] . . . also forecloses plain error review’’ [citation omitted]).
