The defendant’s petition for certification for appeal from the Appellate Court, 114 Conn. App. 750 (AC 28718), is granted, limited to the following issue:

“Did the Appellate Court properly conclude that the defendant waived any constitutional or plain error claim that the trial court’s jury instructions on the charge of assault of a police officer in violation of General Statutes § 53a-167c (a) deprived him of his right to a fair trial and his right to present a defense?”

McLACHLAN, J., did not participate in the consideration of or decision on this petition.
