AN OFFICER MAKING AN ARREST UNDER THIS SUBPARAGRAPH SHALL NOT INQUIRE AS TO THE IMMIGRATION STATUS OF THE PERSON WHOM THE ORDER PROTECTS. IF SUCH STATUS IS ASCERTAINED AND WOULD RESULT IN ADVERSE IMMIGRATION CONSE- QUENCES TO SUCH PERSON, THE OFFICER SHALL NOT REPORT SUCH INFORMATION TO ANY LOCAL, STATE OR FEDERAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCY. (c) a misdemeanor constituting a family offense, as described in subdivision one of section 530.11 of this chapter and section eight hundred twelve of the family court act, has been committed by such person against such family or household member, unless the victim requests otherwise. The officer shall neither inquire as to whether the victim seeks an arrest of such person nor threaten the arrest of any person for the purpose of discouraging requests for police intervention. THE OFFICER SHALL ALSO NOT INQUIRE AS TO THE IMMIGRATION STATUS OF THE VICTIM; NOR SHALL SUCH OFFICER, IF INFORMED OF SUCH STATUS, REPORT SUCH INFORMATION TO ANY LOCAL, STATE OR FEDERAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCY. Notwithstanding the foregoing, when an officer has reasonable cause to believe that more than one family or household member has committed such a misdemeanor, the officer is not required to arrest each such person.
