A 2254 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to the sentencing requirements for the offenses of hindering prosecution and conspiracy

This bill amends New York's Penal Law to adjust sentencing classifications for hindering prosecution and conspiracy offenses. It reclassifies hindering prosecution (based on the underlying felony's severity: class C, B, or A) and conspiracy (fifth, fourth, and third degrees) as specific felony levels (e.g., making hindering prosecution of a class B felony a class D felony). The changes directly affect individuals convicted of these specific crimes by modifying their sentencing ranges. The bill focuses solely on clarifying existing sentencing structures without introducing new offenses or penalties.
