BILL NUMBER:S4821 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the correction law, in relation to risk-level recommendations under the sex offender registration act This is one in a series of measures being introduced at the request of the Chief Administrative Judge upon the recommendation of her Advisory Committee on Criminal Law and Procedure. This measure would amend the Sex Offender Registration Act (Corrections Law article 6-C) to make it the responsibility of the District Attorney to provide the risk-level recommendation where a defendant is sentenced to a term of imprisonment of ninety days or less. Upon certification as a sex offender, a defendant becomes subject to a risk-level determination, assessed by the court following a hearing (Correction Law § 168-d (1)). Prior to the risk-level determination hearing, however, both the court and the offender must be given notice of a risk-level recommendation. Where an offender is not sentenced to a term of imprisonment, it is the District Attorney who provides the risk-level recommendation (see Correction Law § 168-d (2), (3)). Where the offender is sentenced to a term of imprisonment, the responsibility to make the recommendation is placed on the Board of Examiners of Sex Offenders (see Correction Law § 168-1 (6)).
