BILL NUMBER:S1744A
Title of bill
An act to amend the criminal procedure law, in relation to preparation and distribution of the notification form for victims of violent felony offenses regarding a name change petition by the defendant
Purpose of bill
The bill would create a uniform form for crime victims to be notified of any petition by the defendant in the case to change his or her name.
Summary of provisions
Section 1. Requires the Division of Criminal Justice Services and office of victim services to develop and distribute a notification of name change form for victims of crimes to fill out.
Justification
Having the Division of Criminal Justice Services in consultation with Division of Victim Services develop and distribute a form that can be filled out by victims to indicate if they want to be informed of any name change by the defendant in their case will ensure that there is a uniform form used by all prosecuting offices. This will also be beneficial to crime victims as the form will be easily accessible.
