Designates the uniformed court officers of the town of Busti, as peace officers
This bill designates uniformed court officers in the town of Busti, New York, as peace officers. By adding a new subdivision to the state's criminal procedure law, the legislation grants these employees the legal authority to enforce local laws within their jurisdiction. The text includes a specific provision stating that these officers may only carry firearms if they hold a valid license issued under state penal law. This change allows the court officers to perform duties typically associated with peace officers, such as making arrests, without altering their existing employment status.
