Limits the application of the "safe act" to the counties of Kings, Queens, Richmond, New York and Bronx; repealer
This bill limits the application of New York's "Safe Act" to the five boroughs of Kings (Brooklyn), Queens, Richmond (Staten Island), New York (Manhattan), and Bronx. It modifies court procedures requiring firearm surrender after certain legal outcomes - such as a not-guilty verdict due to mental disease, a conviction involving firearms, or an order of protection - in those specific counties. Courts in these areas must now inquire about firearms and order surrender under defined circumstances, while other counties remain unaffected by these provisions. The bill does not create new rules but restricts where existing firearm surrender requirements apply.
