Permits the electronic appearance of a defendant in the county of Oswego
This bill allows criminal defendants in Oswego County to appear in court electronically instead of being physically present, provided the court approves and the defendant agrees. The law requires that a defendant must consult with their lawyer before consenting to this arrangement and must reaffirm their consent at the start of each electronic session. By adding Oswego to a list of counties where this option is already available, the measure expands access to remote court proceedings for that specific jurisdiction. The change takes effect immediately upon signing and applies only to pending criminal cases in the affected area.
