S 9265 New York Senate · 2023 Regular Session

Waives the residency requirement for certain county attorney positions within Greene county

This bill allows individuals who live in counties neighboring Greene County to serve as assistant public defenders in Greene County, even though they do not live in Greene itself. The change removes the usual rule that requires these specific officials to be residents of the county they serve, while still requiring the first assistant public defender to live in Greene County. The law applies immediately and affects the staffing and residency rules for legal aid roles within Greene County.
