PAULIN, COLTON, GLICK, JAFFEE, KAVANAGH, MARKEY, ROSENTHAL, SCHIMEL, SCHIMMINGER, ZEBROWSKI, GIBSON -- Multi-Sponsored by -- M. of A. CLARK, GABRYSZAK, HEVESI, HIKIND, LUPARDO, MAGEE, PERRY, SWEENEY, THIELE, TITONE, WEISENBERG -- read once and referred to the Committee on Agriculture AN ACT to amend the agriculture and markets law, in relation to orders of restitution in certain cases THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Legislative purpose. Animal cruelty and animal fighting are serious crimes in New York state. Because crimes against animals often involve the seizure of the victimized animals, these cases pose unique challenges to law enforcement agencies throughout this state. These challenges involve arranging for the housing and care of the animals while the criminal case is pending. Private organizations, such as shel- ters, humane societies and societies for the prevention of cruelty to animals have traditionally assisted law enforcement agencies by provid- ing care for these animals (which preserves the "evidence" seized in criminal matters) with little or no reimbursement. It is imperative to the continued prosecution of animal cruelty cases that these private organizations be reimbursed for the care that they provide to these victimized animals. Many private organizations are declining to offer assistance in these cases because of the enormous financial burden of caring for a large number of animals for extended time periods with no assurance of reimbursement for these services. If there are no resources to care for the animals once they are seized, law enforcement is less likely to conduct the seizures in the first place. The legislature therefore intends to implement legislation that will improve the state's ability to ensure proper security and reimbursement for impounding organizations providing care on behalf of the state of abused animals. EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [ ] is old law to be omitted. LBD07156-03-3
