§ 20.20 Geographical jurisdiction of offenses; jurisdiction of state.

Except as otherwise provided in this section and section 20.30, a
person may be convicted in the criminal courts of this state of an
offense defined by the laws of this state, committed either by his own
conduct or by the conduct of another for which he is legally accountable
pursuant to section 20.00 of the penal law, when:

1. Conduct occurred within this state sufficient to establish:

(a) An element of such offense; or

(b) An attempt to commit such offense; or

(c) A conspiracy or criminal solicitation to commit such offense, or
otherwise to establish the complicity of at least one of the persons
liable therefor; provided that the jurisdiction accorded by this
paragraph extends only to conviction of those persons whose
conspiratorial or other conduct of complicity occurred within this
state; or

2. Even though none of the conduct constituting such offense may have
occurred within this state:

(a) The offense committed was a result offense and the result
occurred within this state. If the offense was one of homicide, it is
presumed that the result, namely the death of the victim, occurred
within this state if the victim's body or a part thereof was found
herein; or

(b) The statute defining the offense is designed to prevent the
occurrence of a particular effect in this state and the conduct
constituting the offense committed was performed with intent that it
would have such effect herein; or

(c) The offense committed was an attempt to commit a crime within
this state; or

(d) The offense committed was conspiracy to commit a crime within
this state and an overt act in furtherance of such conspiracy occurred
within this state; or

3. The offense committed was one of omission to perform within this
state a duty imposed by the laws of this state. In such case, it is
immaterial whether such person was within or outside this state at the
time of the omission.
