1Opinion of the CourtLavery, J.

The defendant appeals from the judgment of conviction, rendered after a jury trial, of sale of narcotics by a person who is not drug-dependent in violation of General Statutes § 21a-278 (b).1 The defendant claims that the trial court improperly (1) excluded testimony that a police informant was paid to entrap him, (2) denied the defendant’s request for a Secondino charge; see Secondino v. New Haven Gas Co., 147 Conn. 672, 165 A.2d 598 (1960); (3) denied the defendant’s request for a continuance, and (4) denied the defendant’s motion to dismiss. We affirm the judgment of the trial court.
