Grants peace officer status to uniformed court officers in the town of Montgomery
S 1679 grants peace officer status under New York law to uniformed court officers employed by the town of Montgomery's court. This directly affects those specific officers, allowing them certain legal authorities while serving at the Montgomery town court. The bill adds a new provision to the criminal procedure law clarifying that this status does not authorize carrying or possessing firearms without a separate license under the penal law. The law would take effect immediately upon passage. The bill is currently referred to the Codes committee for review.
