 Introduced  by  M.  of  A.  TANNOUSIS  --  read once and referred to the
   Committee on Codes
 
 AN ACT to amend the criminal procedure law, in relation to bail  reform;
   and to repeal certain provisions of such law relating thereto
 
   THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
 BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
 
   Section 1. Section 500.10 of the criminal procedure law is amended  by
 adding a new subdivision 23 to read as follows:
   23.  "RISK  AND  NEEDS  ASSESSMENT"  MEANS A RISK AND NEEDS ASSESSMENT
 INSTRUMENT, APPROVED BY THE CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE JUDGE  OF  THE  UNIFIED
 COURT  SYSTEM.  SUCH  APPROVED ASSESSMENT INSTRUMENT SHALL BE OBJECTIVE,
 STANDARDIZED AND DEVELOPED BASED ON ANALYSIS OF EMPIRICAL DATA AND  RISK
 FACTORS  RELEVANT TO THE PRINCIPAL'S DANGER TO THE COMMUNITY AND RISK OF
 FAILURE OF A PRINCIPAL TO APPEAR. SUCH  APPROVED  ASSESSMENT  INSTRUMENT
 SHALL  NOT  BE  DISCRIMINATORY  BASED ON RACE, NATIONAL ORIGIN, SEX, ANY
 OTHER PROTECTED CLASS OR SOCIOECONOMIC STATUS.
   § 2. Section 510.10 of the  criminal  procedure  law,  as  amended  by
 section  2  of part JJJ of chapter 59 of the laws of 2019, subdivision 4
 as amended by section 2 of part UU of chapter 56 of the laws of 2020, is
 amended to read as follows:
 § 510.10 Securing order; when required; alternatives available; standard
            to be applied.
   1. When a principal, whose  future  court  attendance  at  a  criminal
 action or proceeding is or may be required, comes under the control of a
 court,  such  court  shall, in accordance with this title, by a securing
 order [release the principal] REQUEST OF THE APPLICABLE COUNTY PRE-TRIAL
 SERVICES AGENCY THAT A RISK AND NEEDS ASSESSMENT  BE  CONDUCTED  ON  THE
 ELIGIBLE  PRINCIPAL  AND SUCH COURT SHALL TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE RISK AND
 NEEDS ASSESSMENT, BUT SUCH ASSESSMENT SHALL NOT BE THE  SOLE  DETERMINA-
 TIVE  FACTOR,  FOR  THE  PURPOSE  OF  DETERMINING WHETHER SUCH PRINCIPAL
 SHOULD BE RELEASED on the principal's  own  recognizance,  [release  the

                                                            LBD07327-01-1

 A. 6933                             2

 principal] RELEASED under non-monetary conditions, or, where authorized,
 fix  bail  or commit the principal to the custody of the sheriff. In all
 such cases, except where another type of securing order is shown  to  be
 required  by law, the court shall release the principal pending trial on
 the principal's own recognizance, unless [it  is]  THE  RISK  AND  NEEDS
 ASSESSMENT  HAS  demonstrated  and  the  court  [makes an individualized
 determination] DETERMINES that the principal IS A DANGER TO THE COMMUNI-
 TY OR poses a risk of flight to avoid prosecution.   If such  a  finding
 SPECIFIC  TO RISK OF FLIGHT TO AVOID PROSECUTION is made, the court must
 select the least restrictive alternative  and  condition  or  conditions
 that  will reasonably assure the principal's return to court.  The court
 shall explain its choice of release, release with  conditions,  bail  or
 remand on the record or in writing.
   2.  A  principal  is  entitled to representation by counsel under this
 chapter in preparing an application for release, when a  securing  order
 is  being  considered  and  when  a securing order is being reviewed for
 modification, revocation or termination. If the principal is financially
 unable to obtain counsel, counsel shall be assigned to the principal.
   [3. In cases other than as  described  in  subdivision  four  of  this
 section the court shall release the principal pending trial on the prin-
 cipal's  own  recognizance,  unless  the court finds on the record or in
 writing that release  on  the  principal's  own  recognizance  will  not
 reasonably  assure  the  principal's return to court. In such instances,
 the court shall release the  principal  under  non-monetary  conditions,
 selecting  the  least  restrictive  alternative and conditions that will
 reasonably assure the principal's  return  to  court.  The  court  shall
 explain  its  choice  of  alternative and conditions on the record or in
 writing.
   4. Where the principal stands charged with a qualifying  offense,  the
 court, unless otherwise prohibited by law, may in its discretion release
 the principal pending trial on the principal's own recognizance or under
 non-monetary  conditions,  fix  bail, or, where the defendant is charged
 with a qualifying offense which is a felony, the court  may  commit  the
 principal to the custody of the sheriff. A principal stands charged with

 CABLE COUNTY PRE-TRIAL SERVICES AGENCY, BUT SUCH ASSESSMENT SHALL NOT BE
 THE SOLE DETERMINATIVE FACTOR.

 court  [may,  in its discretion, order] SHALL, REQUEST OF THE APPLICABLE
 COUNTY  PRE-TRIAL  SERVICES  AGENCY  A  RISK  AND  NEEDS  ASSESSMENT  BE
 CONDUCTED  ON  THE  ELIGIBLE  DEFENDANT  AND  THE  COURT SHALL TAKE INTO
 ACCOUNT THE RISK AND NEEDS ASSESSMENT, BUT SUCH ASSESSMENT SHALL NOT  BE
 THE  SOLE  DETERMINATIVE  FACTOR, FOR THE PURPOSE OF DETERMINING WHETHER

 PRE-TRIAL  SERVICES  AGENCY  A RISK AND NEEDS ASSESSMENT BE CONDUCTED ON
 THE ELIGIBLE DEFENDANT AND THE COURT SHALL TAKE INTO  ACCOUNT  THE  RISK

 A. 6933                             7
 
 unless otherwise provided by law, SHOULD BE  RELEASED  ON  AN  order  OF
 recognizance  or  BAIL  OR  release  under  non-monetary  conditions [in

 order.
   [3.  In  cases  other  than  as  described in subdivision four of this
 section the court shall release the principal pending trial on the prin-
 cipal's own recognizance, unless the court finds on  the  record  or  in
 writing  that  release  on  the  principal's  own  recognizance will not
 reasonably assure the principal's return to court.  In  such  instances,
 the  court  shall  release  the principal under non-monetary conditions,
 selecting the least restrictive alternative  and  conditions  that  will
 reasonably  assure  the  principal's  return  to  court. The court shall
 explain its choice of alternative and conditions on  the  record  or  in
