Exempts certain persons from the crime of criminal possession of a firearm, rifle or shotgun in a sensitive location
This bill exempts retired judges from the crime of illegally carrying firearms in sensitive locations, specifically for those already licensed to carry pistols or revolvers under existing law. It adds a new exemption to New York's penal code for retired judges of the Court of Appeals, Supreme Court, County Court, and other specified courts who hold valid firearm licenses. The exemption applies when these retired judges are lawfully carrying firearms in sensitive locations, as defined by current law. The change directly affects retired judicial officers who are licensed firearm carriers and wish to carry while in sensitive areas. The bill takes effect immediately upon enactment.
