Bill > S08324

This bill amends the New York criminal procedure law to grant peace officer status to security officers serving at the Ardsley village court, with specific limitations. The bill provides that these security officers will only have certain powers defined in the criminal procedure law, specifically those related to maintaining order and preventing crime. The officers are prohibited from carrying, possessing, repairing, or disposing of firearms unless they have the appropriate legal license. Additionally, if these security officers are not already classified as police or peace officers, they must complete mandatory training as outlined in section 2.30 of the criminal procedure law. The purpose of this bill appears to be to formalize and regulate the role of security personnel at the Ardsley village court, ensuring they have clear legal authority and are properly trained to perform their duties while maintaining strict guidelines about their powers and limitations.
