A 3162 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Provides access to live scan fingerprinting to society for the prevention of cruelty to animals officers

This bill allows officers from organizations that prevent cruelty to animals (society for the prevention of cruelty to animals officers) to use live scan fingerprinting systems immediately after making an arrest. It directly affects these officers by granting them independent access to fingerprint technology without requiring other law enforcement personnel. The key provision amends criminal procedure law to mandate that these officers may complete fingerprinting independently following an arrest. This streamlines their process for finalizing arrests and reduces reliance on external police assistance.
