2006 New York Code - Powers And Duties Of Non-judicial Personnel.

 
  § 105. Powers and duties of non-judicial personnel.
    (a)  Clerks.  The chief clerk and such other non-judicial personnel as
  shall be authorized by rule or  order  shall  each  have  the  power  to
  administer  oaths,  take acknowledgments and sign the process or mandate
  of the court.
    (b) Enforcement officers; police officers. The enforcement officers of
  the court shall perform the same duties as are performed by sheriffs  in
  courts  of  record and shall have, within their territorial jurisdiction
  and subject to any limitations imposed by this act or by other provision
  of law, such power to serve and execute the processes  and  mandates  of
  the  court as a sheriff has with regard to the processes and mandates of
  the supreme court.  They  shall  also  have,  within  their  territorial
  jurisdiction,  all of the powers in criminal matters of a constable of a
  town in the state of New York. It shall also be the duty of  the  police
  officers  of  the  county,  or  of any city, town or village therein, to
  execute all criminal processes and mandates of  the  court.  Neither  an
  enforcement  officer  nor  a  police  officer  shall  receive any fee or
  compensation for the service or execution of  any  criminal  process  or
  mandate issued out of the court.
    (c)  Records  of enforcement officers. Each of the court's enforcement
  officers shall keep a record of official acts performed by him  upon  or
  in  conjunction  with  the  court's  process  or  mandate. The rules may
  prescribe the manner in which such records shall be maintained.
