in assistance or as a condition of any other order made under this part.
The order of protection may set forth reasonable conditions of  behavior

of  behavior  unless  the  party  requesting the order of protection has
served and filed a petition or counter-claim in accordance with  section
one  hundred  fifty-four-b  of  this  act. Such an order may require the
petitioner or the respondent:
  (a) to stay away from the home, school, business or place  of  employ-
ment  of  any  other  party,  the  other spouse, the other parent or the
child, and to stay away from any other specific location  designated  by

order or a separation agreement, to visit the child at stated periods;
  (c)  to refrain from committing a family offense, as defined in subdi-
vision one of section eight hundred twelve of this act, or any  criminal
offense  against  the  child  or against the other parent or against any

intimidating or threatening such persons;
  (d) to permit a designated party to enter the residence during a spec-
ified period of time in order to remove personal belongings not in issue
in  this  proceeding or in any other proceeding or action under this act
or the domestic relations law;
  (e) to refrain from acts of commission  or  omission  that  create  an
unreasonable risk to the health, safety or welfare of a child;
  (f)  to  participate  in  an  educational program and to pay the costs
thereof if the person has the means to  do  so,  provided  however  that
nothing contained herein shall be deemed to require payment of the costs
of any such program by the state or any political subdivision thereof;
  (g)  to  provide,  either  directly  or by means of medical and health
insurance, for expenses incurred for medical care and treatment  arising
from the incident or incidents forming the basis for the issuance of the
order[.];
  (h)  1.  to  refrain  from  intentionally injuring or killing, without
justification, any companion animal the respondent knows  to  be  owned,
possessed,  leased, kept or held by the person protected by the order or
a minor child residing in such person's household.
  2. "Companion animal", as used in this section, shall  have  the  same
meaning  as  in  subdivision  five of section three hundred fifty of the
agriculture and markets law[.];
  (i) 1. TO PROMPTLY RETURN SPECIFIED IDENTIFICATION  DOCUMENTS  TO  THE
PROTECTED  PARTY,  IN  WHOSE  FAVOR THE ORDER OF PROTECTION OR TEMPORARY
ORDER OF PROTECTION IS ISSUED; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT SUCH  ORDER  MAY:
(A)  INCLUDE  ANY APPROPRIATE PROVISION DESIGNED TO ENSURE THAT ANY SUCH
DOCUMENT IS AVAILABLE FOR USE AS EVIDENCE IN THIS PROCEEDING, AND AVAIL-
ABLE IF NECESSARY FOR LEGITIMATE USE BY  THE  PARTY  AGAINST  WHOM  SUCH
ORDER  IS  ISSUED; AND (B) SPECIFY THE MANNER IN WHICH SUCH RETURN SHALL
BE ACCOMPLISHED.
  2. FOR PURPOSES OF THIS SUBDIVISION, "IDENTIFICATION  DOCUMENT"  SHALL
MEAN ANY OF THE FOLLOWING:  (A) EXCLUSIVELY IN THE NAME OF THE PROTECTED
PARTY:  BIRTH CERTIFICATE, PASSPORT, SOCIAL SECURITY CARD, HEALTH INSUR-
ANCE OR OTHER BENEFITS CARD, A CARD OR DOCUMENT  USED  TO  ACCESS  BANK,
CREDIT OR OTHER FINANCIAL ACCOUNTS OR RECORDS, TAX RETURNS, ANY DRIVER'S
LICENSE, AND IMMIGRATION DOCUMENTS INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO A UNITED
STATES  PERMANENT  RESIDENT  CARD AND EMPLOYMENT AUTHORIZATION DOCUMENT;
AND (B) UPON MOTION AND AFTER NOTICE AND AN OPPORTUNITY TO BE HEARD, ANY
OF THE FOLLOWING, INCLUDING THOSE THAT MAY REFLECT JOINT USE  OR  OWNER-
SHIP,  THAT  THE  COURT  DETERMINES  ARE NECESSARY AND ARE APPROPRIATELY
TRANSFERRED TO THE PROTECTED PARTY: ANY CARD OR DOCUMENT USED TO  ACCESS
BANK,  CREDIT  OR  OTHER FINANCIAL ACCOUNTS OR RECORDS, TAX RETURNS, AND
ANY OTHER IDENTIFYING CARDS AND DOCUMENTS; AND

purposes of protection.
The  court  may  also award custody of the child, during the term of the
order of protection to either parent,  or  to  an  appropriate  relative
within  the second degree. Nothing in this section gives the court power
to place or board out any child or to commit a child to  an  institution
or  agency. In making orders of protection, the court shall so act as to

S. 5821                             4

insure that in the care, protection, discipline and guardianship of  the
child his religious faith shall be preserved and protected.
  Notwithstanding  the  foregoing provisions, an order of protection, or
temporary order of protection where applicable, may be entered against a
former spouse and persons who have a  child  in  common,  regardless  of
whether  such  persons  have  been married or have lived together at any
time, or against a member of the same family or household as defined  in
subdivision one of section eight hundred twelve of this act.
  In addition to the foregoing provisions, the court may issue an order,
pursuant to section two hundred twenty-seven-c of the real property law,
authorizing the party for whose benefit any order of protection has been
issued  to terminate a lease or rental agreement pursuant to section two
hundred twenty-seven-c of the real property law.
  In any proceeding pursuant to this article, a court shall not deny  an
order of protection, or dismiss an application for such an order, solely
on  the basis that the acts or events alleged are not relatively contem-
poraneous with the date of the application  or  the  conclusion  of  the
action.  The  duration  of  any temporary order shall not by itself be a
factor in determining the length or issuance of any final order.

the laws of 1984, the opening paragraph as amended by chapter 706 of the
laws of 1988, subdivisions (a), (b), (c), (d) and  (e)  as  amended  and

of  the  laws  of  2008,  the third undesignated paragraph as amended by

protection has served and filed a petition or counter-claim  in  accord-
ance  with  section  one hundred fifty-four-b of this act. Such an order

ment  of  any  other  party, the other parent, or the child, and to stay
away from any other specific location designated by the court;

justification,  any  companion  animal the respondent knows to be owned,

meaning as in subdivision five of section three  hundred  fifty  of  the
agriculture and markets law[.];
  (j)  1.  TO  PROMPTLY RETURN SPECIFIED IDENTIFICATION DOCUMENTS TO THE
PROTECTED PARTY, IN WHOSE FAVOR THE ORDER  OF  PROTECTION  OR  TEMPORARY
ORDER  OF  PROTECTION IS ISSUED; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT SUCH ORDER MAY:

S. 5821                             8

  S 842. Order of protection. An order of protection under section eight
hundred  forty-one of this part shall set forth reasonable conditions of
behavior to be observed for a period not in excess of two years  by  the
petitioner  or  respondent  or  for a period not in excess of five years
upon (i) a finding by the court on the record of the existence of aggra-
vating circumstances as defined in paragraph (vii) of subdivision (a) of
section eight hundred twenty-seven of this article; or (ii) a finding by
the  court  on the record that the conduct alleged in the petition is in
violation of a valid order of protection.  Any  finding  of  aggravating
circumstances pursuant to this section shall be stated on the record and
upon  the  order  of protection. The court may also, upon motion, extend
the order of protection for a reasonable period of time upon  a  showing
of  good  cause  or  consent of the parties. The fact that abuse has not
occurred during the pendency of an order shall not, in  itself,  consti-
tute  sufficient  ground for denying or failing to extend the order. The
court must articulate a basis for its decision on the record. The  dura-
tion of any temporary order shall not by itself be a factor in determin-
ing  the length or issuance of any final order.  Any order of protection
issued pursuant to this section shall specify if an order  of  probation
is  in  effect.  Any order of protection issued pursuant to this section
may require the petitioner or the respondent:
  (a) to stay away from the home, school, business or place  of  employ-
ment  of  any  other  party,  the other spouse, the other parent, or the
child, and to stay away from any other specific location  designated  by
the court, provided that the court shall make a determination, and shall
state such determination in a written decision or on the record, whether
to  impose  a  condition pursuant to this subdivision, provided further,
however, that failure to make such a determination shall not affect  the
validity  of such order of protection. In making such determination, the
court shall consider, but shall not  be  limited  to  consideration  of,
whether  the order of protection is likely to achieve its purpose in the
absence of  such  a  condition,  conduct  subject  to  prior  orders  of
protection,  prior incidents of abuse, extent of past or present injury,
threats, drug or alcohol abuse, and access to weapons;
  (b) to permit a parent, or a person entitled to visitation by a  court
order or a separation agreement, to visit the child at stated periods;
  (c)  to refrain from committing a family offense, as defined in subdi-
vision one of section eight hundred twelve of this act, or any  criminal
offense  against  the  child  or against the other parent or against any
person to whom custody of the  child  is  awarded,  or  from  harassing,
intimidating or threatening such persons;

  The  court may also award custody of the child, during the term of the
order of protection to either parent,  or  to  an  appropriate  relative
within  the second degree. Nothing in this section gives the court power
to place or board out any child or to commit a child to  an  institution
or agency.
  Notwithstanding  the  provisions of section eight hundred seventeen of
this article, where a temporary order of child support has  not  already
been  issued,  the  court may in addition to the issuance of an order of
protection pursuant to this section, issue an order for temporary  child
support  in an amount sufficient to meet the needs of the child, without
a showing of immediate or emergency need. The court shall make an  order
for  temporary  child  support  notwithstanding  that  information  with
respect to income and assets of the respondent may be unavailable. Where
such information is available, the court may make an award for temporary
child support pursuant to the formula set forth in  subdivision  one  of
section  four  hundred thirteen of this act. Temporary orders of support
issued pursuant to this article shall be  deemed  to  have  been  issued
pursuant to section four hundred thirteen of this act.
  Upon  making  an  order  for  temporary child support pursuant to this
subdivision, the court shall advise the petitioner of  the  availability

S. 5821                            10

of  child support enforcement services by the support collection unit of
the local department of social services, to enforce the temporary  order
and  to  assist  in  securing continued child support, and shall set the
support  matter  down for further proceedings in accordance with article
four of this act.
  Where the court determines that the respondent  has  employer-provided
medical  insurance, the court may further direct, as part of an order of
temporary  support  under  this  subdivision,  that  a  medical  support
execution  be  issued  and  served  upon  the  respondent's  employer as
provided for in section fifty-two hundred forty-one of the  civil  prac-
tice law and rules.
  In  any  proceeding in which an order of protection or temporary order
of protection or a warrant has been issued under this section, the clerk
of the court shall issue to the petitioner and respondent and his  coun-
sel and to any other person affected by the order a copy of the order of
protection  or  temporary  order of protection and ensure that a copy of
the order of protection or temporary order of protection be  transmitted
to  the  local  correctional facility where the individual is or will be
detained, the state or local correctional facility where the  individual
is  or  will  be imprisoned, and the supervising probation department or
the department of corrections and community supervision where the  indi-
vidual is under probation or parole supervision.
  Notwithstanding  the  foregoing provisions, an order of protection, or
temporary order of protection where applicable, may be entered against a
former spouse and persons who have a  child  in  common,  regardless  of
whether  such  persons  have  been married or have lived together at any
time, or against a member of the same family or household as defined  in
subdivision one of section eight hundred twelve of this article.
  In addition to the foregoing provisions, the court may issue an order,
pursuant to section two hundred twenty-seven-c of the real property law,
authorizing the party for whose benefit any order of protection has been
issued  to terminate a lease or rental agreement pursuant to section two
hundred twenty-seven-c of the real property law.
