Broadens the court's discretion to use extended terms of interim probation on consent of the defendant to avoid incarceratory outcomes.

New York S10443 amends the criminal procedure law to broaden the court's discretion to use extended terms of interim probation on consent of the defendant to avoid incarceratory outcomes. The bill allows courts to extend the period of interim probation for two additional one-year periods if the defendant is participating in a treatment program or has been subject to interim supervision. The defendant's record of compliance with such conditions is included in the presentence report, and the court must consider this record when pronouncing sentence.
