THE COURT SHALL HEAR AND RULE UPON SUCH MOTIONS EXPEDITIOUSLY.

THE COURT SHALL HEAR AND RULE UPON SUCH MOTIONS EXPEDITIOUSLY. THE COURT MAY MODIFY OR VACATE SUCH AN ORDER UPON A SHOWING THAT GRANTING ACCESS TO A PARTICULAR CRIME SCENE OR PREMISES WILL CREATE SIGNIFICANT HARDSHIP, ON CONDITION THAT THE PROBATIVE VALUE OF THAT LOCATION IS PRESERVED BY A SPECIFIED ALTERNATIVE MEANS. 3. DISCRETIONARY DISCOVERY BY ORDER OF THE COURT. THE COURT IN ITS DISCRETION MAY, UPON A SHOWING BY THE DEFENDANT THAT THE REQUEST IS REASONABLE AND THAT THE DEFENDANT IS UNABLE WITHOUT UNDUE HARDSHIP TO OBTAIN THE SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENT BY OTHER MEANS, ORDER THE PROSECUTION, OR ANY INDIVIDUAL, AGENCY OR OTHER ENTITY SUBJECT TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE COURT, TO MAKE AVAILABLE FOR DISCLOSURE TO THE DEFENDANT ANY MATERI- AL OR INFORMATION WHICH POTENTIALLY RELATES TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THE CASE AND IS REASONABLY LIKELY TO BE MATERIAL.

FOR PURPOSES OF THIS PARAGRAPH, A "KEYBOARD SEARCH" SHALL MEAN A SEARCH OF A DNA PROFILE AGAINST THE DATABANK IN WHICH THE PROFILE THAT IS SEARCHED IS NOT UPLOADED TO OR MAINTAINED IN THE DATABANK. § 245.60 DILIGENT EFFORT TO ASCERTAIN EXISTENCE OF MATERIAL AND INFORMA- TION. THE PROSECUTOR SHALL MAKE A DILIGENT, GOOD FAITH EFFORT TO ASCERTAIN THE EXISTENCE OF MATERIAL OR INFORMATION DISCOVERABLE UNDER SECTIONS 245.20 OR 245.30 OF THIS ARTICLE AND TO CAUSE SUCH MATERIAL OR INFORMA- TION TO BE MADE AVAILABLE FOR DISCOVERY WHERE IT EXISTS BUT IS NOT WITH- IN THE PROSECUTOR'S POSSESSION, CUSTODY OR CONTROL; PROVIDED THAT THE PROSECUTOR SHALL NOT BE REQUIRED TO OBTAIN BY SUBPOENA DUCES TECUM MATE- RIAL OR INFORMATION WHICH THE DEFENDANT MAY THEREBY OBTAIN.

BY THE PROSECUTION. WHEN THE PROSECUTION HAS PROVIDED THE DISCOVERY REQUIRED BY SECTIONS 245.20 AND 245.30 OF THIS ARTICLE, EXCEPT FOR ANY ITEMS OR INFORMATION THAT ARE THE SUBJECT OF AN ORDER PURSUANT TO SECTION 245.10 OF THIS ARTICLE, IT SHALL SERVE UPON THE DEFENDANT AND FILE WITH THE COURT A CERTIFICATE OF COMPLIANCE.

BY THE DEFENDANT. WHEN THE DEFENDANT HAS PROVIDED ALL DISCOVERY REQUIRED BY SECTION 245.40 OF THIS ARTICLE, EXCEPT FOR ANY ITEMS OR INFORMATION THAT ARE THE SUBJECT OF AN ORDER PURSUANT TO SECTION 245.10 OF THIS ARTICLE, COUNSEL FOR THE DEFENDANT SHALL SERVE UPON THE PROSE- CUTION AND FILE WITH THE COURT A CERTIFICATE OF COMPLIANCE.

IF ADDITIONAL DISCOVERY IS SUBSEQUENTLY PROVIDED PRIOR TO TRIAL PURSUANT TO SECTION 245.75 OF THIS ARTICLE, A SUPPLEMENTAL CERTIFICATE SHALL BE SERVED UPON THE PROSECUTION AND FILED WITH THE COURT IDENTIFYING THE ADDITIONAL MATERIAL AND INFOR- MATION PROVIDED. NO ADVERSE CONSEQUENCE TO THE DEFENDANT OR COUNSEL FOR THE DEFENDANT SHALL RESULT FROM THE FILING OF A CERTIFICATE OF COMPLI- A. 7292 13 ANCE IN GOOD FAITH; BUT THE COURT MAY GRANT A REMEDY FOR A DISCOVERY VIOLATION AS PROVIDED IN SECTION 245.85 OF THIS ARTICLE. § 245.70 COURT ORDERED PROCEDURES TO FACILITATE COMPLIANCE. TO FACILITATE COMPLIANCE WITH THIS ARTICLE, AND TO REDUCE OR STREAM- LINE LITIGATION OF ANY DISPUTES ABOUT DISCOVERY, THE COURT IN ITS DISCRETION MAY ISSUE AN ORDER: 1. REQUIRING THAT THE PROSECUTOR AND COUNSEL FOR THE DEFENDANT DILI- GENTLY CONFER TO ATTEMPT TO REACH AN ACCOMMODATION AS TO ANY DISPUTE CONCERNING DISCOVERY PRIOR TO SEEKING A RULING FROM THE COURT; 2. REQUIRING A DISCOVERY COMPLIANCE CONFERENCE AT A SPECIFIED TIME PRIOR TO TRIAL BETWEEN THE PROSECUTOR, COUNSEL FOR ALL DEFENDANTS, AND THE COURT OR ITS STAFF; 3.

REQUIRING OTHER MEASURES OR PROCEEDINGS DESIGNED TO CARRY INTO EFFECT THE GOALS OF THIS ARTICLE. § 245.75 CONTINUING DUTY TO DISCLOSE. IF EITHER THE PROSECUTION OR THE DEFENDANT SUBSEQUENTLY LEARNS OF ADDITIONAL MATERIAL OR INFORMATION WHICH IT WOULD HAVE BEEN UNDER A DUTY TO DISCLOSE PURSUANT TO ANY PROVISIONS OF THIS ARTICLE AT THE TIME OF A PREVIOUS DISCOVERY OBLIGATION OR DISCOVERY ORDER, IT SHALL EXPEDITIOUSLY NOTIFY THE OTHER PARTY AND DISCLOSE THE ADDITIONAL MATERIAL OR INFORMA- TION AS REQUIRED FOR INITIAL DISCOVERY UNDER THIS ARTICLE.

THIS ARTICLE DOES NOT AUTHORIZE DISCOVERY BY A PARTY OF THOSE PORTIONS OF RECORDS, REPORTS, CORRESPONDENCE, MEMORANDA, OR INTERNAL DOCUMENTS OF THE ADVERSE PARTY WHICH ARE ONLY THE LEGAL RESEARCH, OPINIONS, THEORIES OR CONCLUSIONS OF THE ADVERSE PARTY OR ITS ATTORNEY OR THE ATTORNEY'S AGENTS, OR OF STATEMENTS OF A DEFENDANT, WRITTEN OR RECORDED OR SUMMA- RIZED IN ANY WRITING OR RECORDING, MADE TO THE ATTORNEY FOR THE DEFEND- ANT OR THE ATTORNEY'S AGENTS. § 245.85 AVAILABILITY OF REMEDIES FOR VIOLATIONS. 1. NEED FOR REMEDY. (A) WHEN MATERIAL OR INFORMATION IS DISCOVERABLE UNDER THIS ARTICLE BUT IS DISCLOSED BELATEDLY, THE COURT SHALL IMPOSE AN APPROPRIATE REMEDY IF THE PARTY ENTITLED TO DISCLOSURE SHOWS THAT IT WAS SIGNIFICANTLY PREJUDICED. IF THE UNTIMELY DISCLOSURE OCCURRED BECAUSE THE PARTY RESPONSIBLE FAILED TO MAKE REASONABLY DILIGENT EFFORTS TO COMPLY WITH THIS ARTICLE, THE COURT HAS DISCRETION TO IMPOSE AN APPRO- PRIATE REMEDY IF THE PARTY ENTITLED TO DISCLOSURE SHOWS SOME PREJUDICE. REGARDLESS OF A SHOWING OF PREJUDICE THE PARTY ENTITLED TO DISCLOSURE SHALL BE GIVEN REASONABLE TIME TO PREPARE AND RESPOND TO THE NEW MATERI- AL. (B) WHEN MATERIAL OR INFORMATION IS DISCOVERABLE UNDER THIS ARTICLE BUT CANNOT BE DISCLOSED BECAUSE IT HAS BEEN LOST OR DESTROYED, THE COURT SHALL IMPOSE AN APPROPRIATE REMEDY IF THE PARTY ENTITLED TO DISCLOSURE A. 7292 14 SHOWS THAT THE LOST OR DESTROYED MATERIAL MAY HAVE CONTAINED SOME INFOR- MATION RELEVANT TO A CONTESTED ISSUE. THE APPROPRIATE REMEDY IS THAT WHICH IS PROPORTIONATE TO THE POTENTIAL WAYS IN WHICH THE LOST OR DESTROYED MATERIAL REASONABLY COULD HAVE BEEN HELPFUL TO THE PARTY ENTI- TLED TO DISCLOSURE. 2. AVAILABLE REMEDIES. FOR FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH ANY DISCOVERY ORDER IMPOSED OR ISSUED PURSUANT TO THIS ARTICLE, THE COURT MAY MAKE A FURTHER ORDER FOR DISCOVERY, GRANT A CONTINUANCE, ORDER THAT A HEARING BE REOPENED, ORDER THAT A WITNESS BE CALLED OR RECALLED, INSTRUCT THE JURY THAT IT MAY DRAW AN ADVERSE INFERENCE REGARDING THE NONCOMPLIANCE, PRECLUDE OR STRIKE A WITNESS'S TESTIMONY OR A PORTION OF A WITNESS'S TESTIMONY, ADMIT OR EXCLUDE EVIDENCE, ORDER A MISTRIAL, ORDER THE DISMISSAL OF ALL OR SOME OF THE CHARGES, OR MAKE SUCH OTHER ORDER AS IT DEEMS JUST UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES; EXCEPT THAT ANY SANCTION AGAINST THE DEFENDANT SHALL COMPORT WITH THE DEFENDANT'S CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT TO PRESENT A DEFENSE, AND PRECLUDING A DEFENSE WITNESS FROM TESTIFYING SHALL BE PERMISSIBLE ONLY UPON A FINDING THAT THE DEFENDANT'S FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THE DISCOVERY OBLIGATION OR ORDER WAS WILLFUL AND MOTIVATED BY A DESIRE TO OBTAIN A TACTICAL ADVANTAGE. 3. CONSEQUENCES OF NONDISCLOSURE OF STATEMENT OF TESTIFYING PROSE- CUTION WITNESS. THE FAILURE OF THE PROSECUTOR OR ANY AGENT OF THE PROSE- CUTOR TO DISCLOSE ANY WRITTEN OR RECORDED STATEMENT MADE BY A PROSE- CUTION WITNESS WHICH RELATES TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THE WITNESS'S TESTIMONY SHALL NOT CONSTITUTE GROUNDS FOR ANY COURT TO ORDER A NEW PRE-TRIAL HEARING OR SET ASIDE A CONVICTION, OR REVERSE, MODIFY OR VACATE A JUDGMENT OF CONVICTION, IN THE ABSENCE OF A SHOWING BY THE DEFENDANT THAT THERE IS A REASONABLE POSSIBILITY THAT THE NON-DISCLOSURE MATERIALLY CONTRIBUTED TO THE RESULT OF THE TRIAL OR OTHER PROCEEDING; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT NOTHING IN THIS SECTION SHALL AFFECT OR LIMIT ANY RIGHT THE DEFENDANT MAY HAVE TO A REOPENED PRE-TRIAL HEARING WHEN SUCH STATEMENTS WERE DISCLOSED BEFORE THE CLOSE OF EVIDENCE AT TRIAL. § 245.90 ADMISSIBILITY OF DISCOVERY. THE FACT THAT A PARTY HAS INDICATED DURING THE DISCOVERY PROCESS AN INTENTION TO OFFER SPECIFIED EVIDENCE OR TO CALL A SPECIFIED WITNESS IS NOT ADMISSIBLE IN EVIDENCE OR GROUNDS FOR ADVERSE COMMENT AT A HEARING OR A TRIAL. § 3. Subdivision 1 of section 255.20 of the criminal procedure law, as amended by chapter 369 of the laws of 1982, is amended to read as follows: 1. Except as otherwise expressly provided by law, whether the defend- ant is represented by counsel or elects to proceed pro se, all pre-trial motions shall be served or filed within forty-five days after arraign- ment and before commencement of trial, or within such additional time as the court may fix upon application of the defendant made prior to entry of judgment. In an action in which EITHER (A) MATERIAL OR INFORMATION HAS BEEN DISCLOSED PURSUANT TO PARAGRAPHS (C) OR (H) OF SUBDIVISION TWO OF SECTION 245.20, (B) an eavesdropping warrant and application have been furnished pursuant to section 700.70 or (C) a notice of intention to introduce evidence has been served pursuant to section 710.30, such period shall be extended until forty-five days after the last date of such service. If the defendant is not represented by counsel and has requested an adjournment to obtain counsel or to have counsel assigned, such forty-five day period shall commence on the date counsel initially appears on defendant's behalf. § 4. Subdivision 8 of section 450.20 of the criminal procedure law is amended to read as follows: A. 7292 15 8. An order suppressing evidence, entered before trial pursuant to section 710.20, OR AN ORDER PRECLUDING EVIDENCE, ENTERED BEFORE TRIAL PURSUANT TO SECTION 710.30; provided that the people file a statement in the appellate court pursuant to section 450.50. § 5. Section 450.50 of the criminal procedure law is amended to read as follows: § 450.50 Appeal by people from order suppressing OR PRECLUDING evidence; filing of statement in appellate court. 1. In taking an appeal, pursuant to subdivision eight of section 450.20, to an intermediate appellate court from an order of a criminal court suppressing OR PRECLUDING evidence, the people must file, in addi- tion to a notice of appeal or, as the case may be, an affidavit of errors, a statement asserting that the deprivation of the use of the evidence ordered suppressed OR PRECLUDED has rendered the sum of the proof available to the people with respect to a criminal charge which has been filed in the court either (a) insufficient as a matter of law, or (b) so weak in its entirety that any reasonable possibility of prose- cuting such charge to a conviction has been effectively destroyed. 2. The taking of an appeal by the people, pursuant to subdivision eight of section 450.20, from an order suppressing OR PRECLUDING evidence constitutes a bar to the prosecution of the accusatory instru- ment involving the evidence ordered suppressed OR PRECLUDED, unless and until such suppression OR PRECLUSION order is reversed upon appeal and vacated. § 6. Subdivision 3 of section 610.20 of the criminal procedure law is amended and a new subdivision 4 is added to read as follows: 3. An attorney for a defendant in a criminal action or proceeding, as an officer of a criminal court, may issue a subpoena of such court, subscribed by himself, for the attendance in such court of any witness whom the defendant is entitled to call in such action or proceeding. An attorney for a defendant may not issue a subpoena duces tecum of the court directed to any department, bureau or agency of the state or of a political subdivision thereof, or to any officer or representative ther- eof, UNLESS THE SUBPOENA IS INDORSED BY THE COURT AND PROVIDES AT LEAST THREE DAYS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF THE REQUESTED MATERIALS. IN THE CASE OF AN EMERGENCY, THE COURT MAY BY ORDER DISPENSE WITH THE THREE-DAY PRODUCTION PERIOD. [Such a subpoena duces tecum may be issued in behalf of a defendant upon order of a court pursuant to the rules applicable to civil cases as provided in section twenty-three hundred seven of the civil practice law and rules.] 4. THE SHOWING REQUIRED TO SUSTAIN ANY SUBPOENA UNDER THIS SECTION IS THAT THE TESTIMONY OR EVIDENCE SOUGHT IS REASONABLY LIKELY TO BE RELE- VANT AND MATERIAL TO THE PROCEEDINGS, AND THE SUBPOENA IS NOT OVERBROAD OR UNREASONABLY BURDENSOME. § 7. Section 710.30 of the criminal procedure law, as separately amended by chapters 8 and 194 of the laws of 1976, is amended to read as follows: § 710.30 Motion to suppress evidence; notice to defendant of intention to offer evidence. 1. Whenever the people intend to offer at a trial (a) evidence of a statement made by a defendant to a public servant, which statement if involuntarily made would render the evidence thereof suppressible upon motion pursuant to subdivision three of section 710.20, or (b) testimony regarding an observation of the defendant either at the time or place of the commission of the offense or upon some other occasion relevant to the case, to be given by a witness who has previously identified him as A. 7292 16 such, OR (C) TANGIBLE OBJECTS OBTAINED FROM THE DEFENDANT OR A PLACE OR ENTITY IN WHICH A COURT MAY RULE THAT THE DEFENDANT HAD STANDING, they must serve upon the defendant a notice of such intention, specifying the evidence intended to be offered. WHERE NOTICE IS GIVEN UNDER SUBDIVISION TWO OF THIS SECTION, SUCH NOTICE SHALL SPECIFY ALL IDENTIFICATION PROCE- DURES IN WHICH THE WITNESS PARTICIPATED, INCLUDING PHOTOGRAPHIC PROCE- DURES, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE PARTICULAR PROCEDURE WILL BE OFFERED AT TRIAL. 2. Such notice must be served within fifteen days after arraignment and before trial, and upon such service the defendant must be accorded reasonable opportunity to move before trial, pursuant to subdivision one of section 710.40, to suppress the specified evidence. [For good cause shown, however] WHERE THE PEOPLE ESTABLISH THAT THEY ACTED WITH DUE DILIGENCE, the court may permit the people to serve such notice, there- after and in such case it must accord the defendant reasonable opportu- nity thereafter to make a suppression motion. 3. In the absence of service of notice upon a defendant as prescribed in this section, no evidence of a kind specified in subdivision one may be received against him upon trial unless he has, despite the lack of such notice, moved to suppress such evidence and such motion has been denied and the evidence thereby rendered admissible as prescribed in subdivision two of section 710.70. 4. ON AN APPEAL FROM A JUDGMENT OF CONVICTION, A DEFENDANT WHO MOVED TO SUPPRESS EVIDENCE AFTER HAVING UNSUCCESSFULLY SOUGHT PRECLUSION OF SUCH EVIDENCE UNDER THIS SECTION MAY CHALLENGE BOTH THE DENIAL OF PRECLUSION AND THE DENIAL OF SUPPRESSION. § 8. Section 215.11 of the penal law, as added by chapter 664 of the laws of 1982, is amended to read as follows: § 215.11 Tampering with a witness in the third degree. A person is guilty of tampering with a witness in the third degree when, knowing that a person is about to be called as a witness in a criminal proceeding: 1. He wrongfully compels or attempts to compel such person to absent himself from, or otherwise to avoid or seek to avoid appearing or testi- fying at such proceeding by means of instilling in him a fear that the actor will cause physical injury to such person or another person; or 2. He wrongfully compels or attempts to compel such person to swear falsely by means of instilling in him a fear that the actor will cause physical injury to such person or another person. Tampering with a witness in the third degree is a class [E] D felony. § 9. Section 215.12 of the penal law, as added by chapter 664 of the laws of 1982, is amended to read as follows: § 215.12 Tampering with a witness in the second degree. A person is guilty of tampering with a witness in the second degree when he: 1. Intentionally causes physical injury to a person for the purpose of obstructing, delaying, preventing or impeding the giving of testimony in a criminal proceeding by such person or another person or for the purpose of compelling such person or another person to swear falsely; or 2. He intentionally causes physical injury to a person on account of such person or another person having testified in a criminal proceeding. Tampering with a witness in the second degree is a class [D] C felony. § 10. Section 215.15 of the penal law, as added by chapter 667 of the laws of 1985, is amended to read as follows: § 215.15 Intimidating a victim or witness in the third degree. A. 7292 17 A person is guilty of intimidating a victim or witness in the third degree when, knowing that another person possesses information relating to a criminal transaction and other than in the course of that criminal transaction or immediate flight therefrom, he: 1. Wrongfully compels or attempts to compel such other person to refrain from communicating such information to any court, grand jury, prosecutor, police officer or peace officer by means of instilling in him a fear that the actor will cause physical injury to such other person or another person; or 2. Intentionally damages the property of such other person or another person for the purpose of compelling such other person or another person to refrain from communicating, or on account of such other person or another person having communicated, information relating to that crimi- nal transaction to any court, grand jury, prosecutor, police officer or peace officer. Intimidating a victim or witness in the third degree is a class [E] D felony. § 11. Section 215.16 of the penal law, as added by chapter 667 of the laws of 1985, is amended to read as follows: § 215.16 Intimidating a victim or witness in the second degree. A person is guilty of intimidating a victim or witness in the second degree when, other than in the course of that criminal transaction or immediate flight therefrom, he: 1. Intentionally causes physical injury to another person for the purpose of obstructing, delaying, preventing or impeding the communi- cation by such other person or another person of information relating to a criminal transaction to any court, grand jury, prosecutor, police officer or peace officer or for the purpose of compelling such other person or another person to swear falsely; or 2. Intentionally causes physical injury to another person on account of such other person or another person having communicated information relating to a criminal transaction to any court, grand jury, prosecutor, police officer or peace officer; or 3.

Intimidating a victim or witness in the second degree is a class [D] C felony. § 12. This act shall take effect immediately.
