New York A09685 amends the criminal procedure law to ensure timely service of supporting depositions for defendants charged by simplified information.
New York A09685 amends the criminal procedure law to ensure that a defendant charged by a simplified information receives a supporting deposition from the complainant police officer or public servant. The deposition must be served upon the defendant or their attorney within thirty days of the defendant's appearance in court or at least five days before trial, whichever is earlier. The law also mandates that the deposition be filed with the court together with proof of service. This change aims to ensure that defendants have timely access to supporting evidence in their cases.
