Maddy summaryThis bill would allow Nassau County to optionally provide disability coverage for its probation officers. If enacted, it would require the county to pay full salary and cover all medical costs if a probation officer is injured or becomes ill while performing job duties. The coverage would apply specifically to Nassau County probation officers (not officers in other counties) and prohibits medical providers from billing officers for covered treatments. The bill amends existing municipal law to include county probation officers under the same disability coverage provisions already available to other public safety personnel in Nassau County.

Maddy summaryThis bill creates a new legal framework for protective orders targeting severe stalking behavior, directly affecting victims (petitioners) and alleged stalkers (respondents). It establishes temporary and final "anti-stalking orders" that prohibit contact, surveillance, and remote control of connected devices (like smart home systems), requiring respondents to stay away from victims' homes, workplaces, or schools. The law defines "stalking" broadly to include offenses like harassment, assault, identity theft, and unauthorized sharing of intimate images, requiring a "course of conduct" (two or more acts within 90 days) to trigger the order. Courts must issue temporary orders the same day if an immediate threat exists, with final orders requiring a hearing to confirm evidence supports the petition.
