2023 New York Laws › JUD - Judiciary › Article 5-B - Special Narcotics Parts of the Supreme Court in Cities With a Population of One Million or More › 177-A - Declaration of Legislative Findings and Intent.

§   177-a.   Declaration  of  legislative  findings  and  intent.  The
  legislature hereby  finds  and  declares  that  an  emergency  of  grave
  dimensions  exists  in  narcotics  law  enforcement  in  cities having a
  population of one million or more.  The overall law  enforcement  effort
  has  not been successful in stemming the distribution of narcotic drugs.
  The legislature finds that the ineffectiveness of  official  efforts  to
  contain  the  narcotics  traffic  is  due  in  significant  part  to the
  inability of the overburdened criminal justice system to cope  with  the
  enormous volume of narcotics cases.
The  legislature  further finds that this crisis, which transcends the
  traditional jurisdictional boundaries of the counties  wholly  contained
  within  such  cities having a population of one million or more, demands
  coordinated prosecution,  centralized  direction  and  the  infusion  of
  massive new resources.
The  legislature  declares  that  without  these  new  directions  and
  resources, this crisis will intensify and  very  shortly  overwhelm  the
  already strained criminal justice system.
Based  upon the above findings the legislature hereby declares that an
  emergency narcotics court program is required.
It is the intent of  the  legislature  that  the  emergency  narcotics
  program should be coordinated by the division of criminal justice of the
  office  of  planning  services  in cooperation with the criminal justice
  coordinating councils of such cities. The program would  be  implemented
  by  the  joint  efforts of the district attorneys of the counties within
  cities having a population of one million or more,  the  judiciary,  and
  other  criminal  justice  services  acting in accordance with a mutually
  agreed  upon  plan.  The  legislature  contemplates  that  the   program
  authorized   herein  shall  consist  of  the  establishment  of  special
  narcotics parts in the supreme court in cities having  a  population  of
  one  million  or  more  to hear and determine narcotic cases from within
  counties wholly contained in a city having a population of  one  million
  or  more,  commencing  not  later  than  the  September nineteen hundred
  seventy-two term and continuing thereafter during the  duration  of  the
  emergency.
The  legislature  declares  that  the  resources  necessary  for these
  special narcotics parts of the supreme court can be made available  only
  through  a  combination  of  federal  funds  from  the  law  enforcement
  assistance administration of the United States  department  of  justice,
  and  state  and  local  funds, services and facilities.  To this end the
  legislature declares that in order  to  utilize  presently  appropriated
  federal funds, all necessary agreements shall be entered into forthwith.

§  177-b.  Special  narcotics  parts; establishment. 1. There shall be
  established in cities having a population of one million or more in  the
  supreme  court  special  narcotics  parts  in  such  numbers and at such
  locations as shall be designated by  the  administrative  board  of  the
  judicial  conference of the state of New York to effectuate the purposes
  of  this  article.  Such  parts  shall  hear  and  determine   narcotics
  indictments  assigned  thereto from any part of the supreme court in any
  county within such cities.
As used in this article, "narcotics indictment"  means  an  indictment
  charging  a crime that is prosecutable in any county wholly contained in
  a city within  cities  having  a  population  of  one  million  or  more
  involving  the  sale  or  possession  of  a  narcotic drug and any other
  offense properly joined therewith.
2.  Notwithstanding  any  other  provision  of  law,  upon  or   after
  arraignment  on a narcotics indictment filed in the supreme court in any
  county within such cities and before  entry  of  a  plea  of  guilty  or
  commencement  of trial, such supreme court may order that the indictment
  and action be assigned to a special narcotics part of the supreme court.
3. The trial of an indictment in a special narcotics  part  shall  for
  all  purposes  be  deemed  to  be  a  trial  in  the county in which the
  indictment was filed, but  the  administrative  board  of  the  judicial
  conference  may promulgate rules, orders or regulations to be applicable
  to such parts in place and instead of the rules, orders  or  regulations
  applicable  to  courts in the county where the indictment was filed. The
  administrative board shall provide by rule, order or regulation  for  at
  least  the  following  matters: the procedure of the part; its auxiliary
  services; the assignment  of  judicial  personnel;  the  appointment  of
  terms;  and  transmittal  of  all  papers  in  the action, including all
  undertakings for appearances of the defendant and of the  witnesses,  to
  the part of the supreme court to which the action has been assigned.

alleged commission of an offense in any county  wholly  contained  in  a
