BILL NUMBER: S2934
TITLE OF BILL : An act to amend the criminal procedure law, in
relation to negotiated sentence of imprisonment
PURPOSE :
This legislation would prohibit the requirement that a pre-sentence

365 days or less has been agreed upon.
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS :
Within the statute of negotiated sentence of imprisonment, the
requirement of a pre-sentence investigation and written report would
be eliminated when a term of imprisonment for 365 days or less has
been agreed upon by the parties with consent of the judge as a result
of a conviction or revocation of a sentence of probation.
JUSTIFICATION :
This legislation will correct a deficiency within the existing statute
under the very specific circumstances when a pre-sentence report is
not required regarding a sentence of imprisonment of one year or less
so long as the sentence was negotiated and agreed to by the defendant,
