New York S01389 amends the criminal procedure law to expedite the enforcement of securing orders. Specifically, it mandates immediate enforcement through the issuance of a bench warrant when a defendant fails to appear for a scheduled court appearance. The bill removes the previous requirement for a 48-hour notice to the defendant or their counsel before issuing a bench warrant, allowing for quicker action to compel attendance. This change applies to defendants who are at liberty on their own recognizance, non-monetary conditions, or on bail.
