BILL NUMBER:S3356 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the penal law and the general business law, in relation to criminal mischief and securities fraud PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL: To raise the existing monetary thresh- olds for Felony-Level Criminal Mischief and Securities Fraud. SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS: Section 1 of the bill amends subdivision 2 of section 145.05 of the Penal Law to raise the monetary property damage threshold from ($250) to $1,000. Section 2 of the bill amends section 145.10 of the Penal Law to raise the monetary property damage threshold from ($1,500) to $3,000. Section 3 of the bill amends subdivision 6 of section 352-c of the general busi- ness to raise the monetary threshold from ($250) to $1,000. JUSTIFICATION: Current monetary thresholds for criminal mischief in the second and third degrees (Penal Law sections 145.05 (2) and 145.10, respectively) are too low and should be raised to conform to the higher thresholds established by the Legislature in 1986 for comparable theft and stolen property-related felony offenses such as grand larceny, crim- inal Possession of stolen property and insurance fraud.
