A 4644 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to burglary on a premises used as a farm operation

This bill amends New York's burglary law to explicitly include farm operations as protected premises under second-degree burglary charges. It makes it a class C felony to enter or remain unlawfully on real property used as a farm operation with intent to commit a crime there, similar to protections for residential dwellings. The change directly affects farm owners and operators by extending the same legal safeguards to their property as those applied to homes. The law now specifically lists "farm operations" as a qualifying premises type under the statute, without altering penalties or adding new enforcement mechanisms.
