New York A06499 amends the criminal procedure law to set a 45-day deadline for filing pre-trial motions in criminal cases.

New York A06499 amends the criminal procedure law to standardize the timeframe for filing pre-trial motions in criminal cases. It mandates that all pre-trial motions must be served or filed within 45 days after arraignment or the filing of a plea, whichever is later. This deadline is extended if material or information has been disclosed, an eavesdropping warrant has been issued, or a proper certificate of compliance has been furnished. If a defendant is unrepresented and has requested an adjournment to obtain counsel, the 45-day period begins when counsel appears on their behalf.
