Requires district attorneys to notify victims of felony dispositions via mail, electronic, or other secure means if victims were not present at.
This bill amends the criminal procedure law to mandate that district attorneys or their designees provide a written summary of the disposition of a felony to any victim who was not present at the time of sentencing or acquittal. The summary must be delivered by mail, electronically, or through any other reasonable and secure means of written communication. This ensures that victims who missed the trial or sentencing are informed of the outcome.
