Go to top STATE OF NEW YORK ________________________________________________________________________ 6983--B Cal. No. 249 2019-2020 Regular Sessions IN ASSEMBLY April 3, 2019 ___________ Introduced by M. of A. GOTTFRIED, PAULIN, NIOU, FAHY, HEVESI, SAYEGH, L. ROSENTHAL, SIMOTAS, KIM, QUART, EPSTEIN, MOSLEY, AUBRY, JAFFEE, D'URSO, WALKER, CRUZ, STECK, PERRY, DICKENS, HUNTER, ARROYO, CROUCH, ORTIZ, REYES, COOK, SIMON, DARLING, WALCZYK, RIVERA, SEAWRIGHT, LIFTON, FERNANDEZ, GLICK, BLAKE, O'DONNELL, CARROLL -- Multi-Sponsored by -- M. of A. DenDEKKER -- read once and referred to the Committee on Codes -- committee discharged, bill amended, ordered reprinted as amended and recommitted to said committee -- ordered to a third read- ing, amended and ordered reprinted, retaining its place on the order of third reading AN ACT to amend the criminal procedure law, in relation to vacating convictions for offenses resulting from sex trafficking, labor traf- ficking and compelling prostitution The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem- bly, do enact as follows: 1 Section 1. Legislative intent. The purpose of this legislation is to 2 strengthen protection for the victims of sex trafficking, labor traf- 3 ficking, compelling prostitution and trafficking in persons, who are 4 convicted of a range of offenses as a result of that trafficking or 5 compelling. New York's landmark law offering the vacating of convictions 6 for prostitution-related offenses that were a result of this trafficking 7 has been the model for laws in more than half of the states. However, 8 several states wisely offer this relief to victims who may be compelled 9 to participate in other offenses as well. This legislation would follow 10 that example. 11 § 2. Paragraph (i) of subdivision 1 of section 440.10 of the criminal 12 procedure law, as amended by section 3 of part OO of chapter 55 of the 13 laws of 2019 and subparagraph (ii) of paragraph (i) of subdivision 1 as 14 amended by chapter 131 of the laws of 2019, is amended to read as 15 follows: EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [] is old law to be omitted. LBD03508-07-0A. 6983--B 2 1 (i) The judgment is a conviction where [the arresting charge was under2section 240.37 (loitering for the purpose of engaging in a prostitution3offense, provided that the defendant was not alleged to be loitering for4the purpose of patronizing a person for prostitution or promoting pros-5titution) or 230.00 (prostitution) or 230.03 (prostitution in a school6zone) of the penal law, and] the defendant's participation in the 7 offense was a result of having been a victim of sex trafficking under 8 section 230.34 of the penal law, sex trafficking of a child under 9 section 230.34-a of the penal law, labor trafficking under section 10 135.35 of the penal law, aggravated labor trafficking under section 11 135.37 of the penal law, compelling prostitution under section 230.33 of 12 the penal law, or trafficking in persons under the Trafficking Victims 13 Protection Act (United States Code, title 22, chapter 78); provided that 14 (i) [a motion under this paragraph shall be made with due diligence,15after the defendant has ceased to be a victim of such trafficking or16compelling prostitution crime or has sought services for victims of such17trafficking or compelling prostitution crime, subject to reasonable18concerns for the safety of the defendant, family members of the defend-19ant, or other victims of such trafficking or compelling prostitution20crime that may be jeopardized by the bringing of such motion, or for21other reasons consistent with the purpose of this paragraph; and22(ii)] official documentation of the defendant's status as a victim of 23 sex trafficking, labor trafficking, aggravated labor trafficking, 24 compelling prostitution, or trafficking in persons at the time of the 25 offense from a federal, state or local government agency shall create a 26 presumption that the defendant's participation in the offense was a 27 result of having been a victim of sex trafficking, labor trafficking, 28 aggravated labor trafficking, compelling prostitution or trafficking in 29 persons, but shall not be required for granting a motion under this 30 paragraph; 31 (ii) a motion under this paragraph, and all pertinent papers and docu- 32 ments, shall be confidential and may not be made available to any person 33 or public or private entity except where specifically authorized by the 34 court; and 35 (iii) when a motion is filed under this paragraph, the court may, upon 36 the consent of the petitioner and all of the state and local prosecuto- 37 rial agencies that prosecuted each matter, consolidate into one proceed- 38 ing a motion to vacate judgments imposed by distinct or multiple crimi- 39 nal courts; or 40 § 3. Subdivision 6 of section 440.10 of the criminal procedure law, as 41 amended by chapter 131 of the laws of 2019, is amended to read as 42 follows: 43 6. If the court grants a motion under paragraph (i) or paragraph (k) 44 of subdivision one of this section, it must vacate the judgment and 45 dismiss the accusatory instrument, and may take such additional action 46 as is appropriate in the circumstances. In the case of a motion granted 47 under paragraph (i) of subdivision one of this section, the court must 48 vacate the judgment on the merits because the defendant's participation 49 in the offense was a result of having been a victim of trafficking. 50 § 4. This act shall take effect immediately; provided that subpara- 51 graph (ii) of paragraph (i) of subdivision 1 of section 440.10 of the 52 criminal procedure law, as added by section two of this act, shall take 53 effect on the sixtieth day after it shall have become a law.
