   THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
 BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

   Section 1. Paragraphs (t) and (u) of subdivision 4 of  section  510.10
 of  the  criminal  procedure law, paragraph (t) as amended and paragraph
 (u) as added by section 2 of subpart B of part UU of chapter 56  of  the
 laws  of  2022,  are amended and a new paragraph (v) is added to read as
 follows:
   (t) any felony or class A misdemeanor involving harm to  an  identifi-
 able  person  or  property,  or  any  charge of criminal possession of a
 firearm as defined in section 265.01-b of  the  penal  law,  where  such
 charge  arose from conduct occurring while the defendant was released on
 [his or her] SUCH DEFENDANT'S own recognizance,  released  under  condi-
 tions,  or  had yet to be arraigned after the issuance of a desk appear-
 ance ticket for a separate felony or class A misdemeanor involving  harm
 to  an  identifiable  person  or  property,  or  any  charge of criminal
 possession of a firearm as defined in section 265.01-b of the penal law,
 provided, however, that the prosecutor must  show  reasonable  cause  to
 believe  that the defendant committed the instant crime and any underly-
 ing crime. For the purposes of this subparagraph, any of the  underlying
 crimes  need not be a qualifying offense as defined in this subdivision.
 For the purposes of this paragraph, "harm to an identifiable  person  or
 property"  shall  include  but  not  be limited to theft of or damage to
 property. However, based upon a review of the facts alleged in the accu-
 satory instrument, if the court determines that such theft is negligible
 and does not appear to be in furtherance of other criminal activity, the
 principal shall be released on [his or her] SUCH PRINCIPAL'S own  recog-
 nizance or under appropriate non-monetary conditions; [or]
   (u)  criminal possession of a weapon in the third degree as defined in
 subdivision three of section 265.02 of the penal law or criminal sale of
 
  EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
