OPINION OF THE COURT

Matthew J. D’Emic, J.

By order dated April 1, 2016, the court, after reviewing the grand jury minutes at the request of the defendant, found the evidence sufficient to sustain his indictment for two counts of making a terroristic threat (Penal Law § 490.20) and one count of criminal contempt in the second degree (Penal Law § 215.50 [1]). The defendant now moves to reargue that decision, for insufficiency of evidence (CPL 210.20 [1] [b]).

The motion to reargue is granted, and upon reargument the two counts of making a terroristic threat are dismissed.
