Decided October 29, 1993.

Carmen A. Malignaggi, attorney for appellant (Mr. Malignaggi, on the letter-brief).

Edward F. Borden, Jr., Camden County Prosecutor, attorney for respondent (Frederick H. Martin, Assistant Prosecutor, of counsel and on the letter-brief).

Before Judges PETRELLA, BAIME and VILLANUEVA.
