§ 530.13 Protection of victims of crimes, other than family offenses.
    1. When any criminal action is pending, and the court has not issued a
  temporary  order  of  protection  pursuant  to  section  530.12  of this
  article, the court, in addition to the other powers conferred upon it by
  this chapter, may for good  cause  shown  issue  a  temporary  order  of
  protection  in  conjunction  with  any  securing  order  committing  the
  defendant to the custody of the sheriff or as a condition of a pre-trial
  release, or as a condition of release  on  bail  or  an  adjournment  in
  contemplation of dismissal. In addition to any other conditions, such an
  order may require that the defendant:
    (a)  stay  away from the home, school, business or place of employment
  of the victims of, or designated witnesses to, the alleged offense;
    (b) refrain from harassing,  intimidating,  threatening  or  otherwise
  interfering  with the victims of the alleged offense and such members of
  the family or household of such victims or designated witnesses as shall
  be specifically named by the court in such order;
    (c) 1. to refrain from  intentionally  injuring  or  killing,  without
  justification,  any  companion  animal  the defendant knows to be owned,
  possessed, leased, kept or held by such victim or  victims  or  a  minor
  child residing in such victim's or victims' household.
    2.  "Companion  animal",  as used in this section, shall have the same
  meaning as in subdivision five of section three  hundred  fifty  of  the
  agriculture and markets law.
    In addition to the foregoing provisions, the court may issue an order,
  pursuant to section two hundred twenty-seven-c of the real property law,
  authorizing the party for whose benefit any order of protection has been
  issued  to terminate a lease or rental agreement pursuant to section two
  hundred twenty-seven-c of the real property law.
    2. The court may issue a temporary  order  of  protection  under  this
  section  ex  parte  upon  the filing of an accusatory instrument and for
  good cause shown.
    3. The court may issue or extend a temporary order of protection under
  this section ex parte simultaneously with the issuance of a warrant  for
  the  arrest  of  the  defendant.  Such temporary order of protection may
  continue in effect until the day the defendant subsequently  appears  in
  court pursuant to such warrant or voluntarily or otherwise.
    4. * Upon conviction of any offense, where the court has not issued an
  order  of  protection  pursuant  to  section 530.12 of this article, the
  court may, in addition to any other disposition, including a conditional
  discharge  or  youthful  offender  adjudication,  enter  an   order   of
  protection.  Where a temporary order of protection was issued, the court
  shall state on the record the reasons for  issuing  or  not  issuing  an
  order of protection. The duration of such an order shall be fixed by the
  court  and; (A) in the case of a felony conviction, shall not exceed the
  greater of: (i) eight years from the date of such  conviction,  or  (ii)
  eight  years  from  the date of the expiration of the maximum term of an
  indeterminate or the term of  a  determinate  sentence  of  imprisonment
  actually  imposed;  or  (B)  in  the  case of a conviction for a class A
  misdemeanor, shall not exceed the greater of: (i) five  years  from  the
  date  of  such  conviction,  or  (ii)  five  years  from the date of the
  expiration of the maximum  term  of  a  definite  or  intermittent  term
  actually  imposed;  or  (C)  in  the  case of a conviction for any other
  offense, shall not exceed the greater of: (i) two years from the date of
  conviction, or (ii) two years from the date of  the  expiration  of  the
  maximum  term  of  a definite or intermittent term actually imposed. For
  purposes of determining the duration of an order of  protection  entered
  pursuant  to this subdivision, a conviction shall be deemed to include a
  conviction that has been replaced by a youthful  offender  adjudication.

In  addition  to any other conditions such an order may require that the
  defendant:
    * NB Effective until September 1, 2011
    * Upon  conviction  of  any offense, where the court has not issued an
  order of protection pursuant to section  530.12  of  this  article,  the
  court may, in addition to any other disposition, including a conditional
  discharge   or   youthful  offender  adjudication,  enter  an  order  of
  protection. Where a temporary order of protection was issued, the  court
  shall  state  on  the  record  the reasons for issuing or not issuing an
  order of protection. The duration of such an order shall be fixed by the
  court and, in the case of a felony  conviction,  shall  not  exceed  the
  greater  of:  (i)  five  years from the date of such conviction, or (ii)
  three years from the date of the expiration of the maximum  term  of  an
  indeterminate  sentence of imprisonment actually imposed; or in the case
  of a conviction for a class A misdemeanor, shall not exceed three  years
  from the date of such conviction; or in the case of a conviction for any
  other  offense,  shall  not exceed one year from the date of conviction.
  For purposes of determining the  duration  of  an  order  of  protection
  entered  pursuant  to  this subdivision, a conviction shall be deemed to
  include a conviction that has  been  replaced  by  a  youthful  offender
  adjudication.  In  addition  to  any  other conditions such an order may
  require that the defendant:
    * NB Effective September 1, 2011
    (a) stay away from the home, school, business or place  of  employment
  of  the victim or victims, or of any witness designated by the court, of
  such offense;
    (b) refrain from harassing,  intimidating,  threatening  or  otherwise
  interfering  with  the victim or victims of the offense and such members
  of the family or household  of  such  victim  or  victims  as  shall  be
  specifically named by the court in such order;
    (c)  1.  to  refrain  from  intentionally injuring or killing, without
  justification, any companion animal the defendant  knows  to  be  owned,
  possessed,  leased,  kept  or  held by such victim or victims or a minor
  child residing in such victim's or victims' household.
    2. "Companion animal", as used in this section, shall  have  the  same
  meaning  as  in  subdivision  five of section three hundred fifty of the
  agriculture and markets law.
    5. The court shall inquire as to the existence of any other orders  of
  protection  between the defendant and the person or persons for whom the
  order of protection is sought. An order of protection issued under  this
  section  shall plainly state the date that such order expires. Orders of
  protection issued to protect victims of domestic violence, as defined in
  section four hundred fifty-nine-a of the social services law,  shall  be
  on  uniform  statewide  forms  that  shall  be  promulgated by the chief
  administrator of the courts in a manner to ensure the  compatibility  of
  such  forms  with  the  statewide  registry  of orders of protection and
  warrants established pursuant to section two hundred twenty-one-a of the
  executive law. A copy of an order of protection or a temporary order  of
  protection  issued  pursuant  to subdivision one, two, three, or four of
  this section shall be filed by the clerk of the court with the sheriff's
  office in the county in which such victim or victims reside, or, if  the
  victim  or  victims  reside within a city, with the police department of
  such city. A copy of such order of  protection  or  temporary  order  of
  protection may from time to time be filed by the clerk of the court with
  any  other  police department or sheriff's office having jurisdiction of
  the residence, work place, and school of anyone intended to be protected
  by such order. A copy of the order may also be filed by  the  victim  or
  victims  at the appropriate police department or sheriff's office having

jurisdiction. Any subsequent amendment or revocation of such order shall
  be filed in the same manner as herein provided.
    6.  In  any  proceeding  in  which an order of protection or temporary
  order of protection or a warrant has been issued under this section, the
  clerk of the court shall issue to  the  victim  and  the  defendant  and
  defense counsel and to any other person affected by the order, a copy of
  the order of protection or temporary order of protection and ensure that
  a  copy  of  the order of protection or temporary order of protection be
  transmitted to the local correctional facility where the  individual  is
  or  will be detained, the state or local correctional facility where the
  individual is or will  be  imprisoned,  and  the  supervising  probation
  department or division of parole where the individual is under probation
  or  parole  supervision.  The  presentation of a copy of such order or a
  warrant to any police officer or peace officer acting  pursuant  to  his
  special duties shall constitute authority for him to arrest a person who
  has  violated  the  terms of such order and bring such person before the
  court and, otherwise, so far  as  lies  within  his  power,  to  aid  in
  securing the protection such order was intended to afford.
    7.  Punishment  for  contempt  based  upon  a violation of an order or
  protection or temporary order of protection issued  under  this  section
  shall  not  affect  a  pending criminal action, nor reduce or diminish a
  sentence upon conviction for any other crimes or offenses.
    8. If a defendant is brought before the court for failure to obey  any
  lawful  order issued under this section and if, after hearing, the court
  is satisfied by competent proof that the defendant has willfully  failed
  to obey any such order, the court may:
    (a)  revoke  an order of recognizance or bail and commit the defendant
  to custody; or
    (b)  restore  the  case  to  the  calendar  when  there  has  been  an
  adjournment  in  contemplation  of dismissal and commit the defendant to
  custody or impose or increase bail pending a trial of the original crime
  or violation; or
    (c) revoke a conditional discharge in accordance with  section  410.70
  of this chapter and impose probation supervision or impose a sentence of
  imprisonment  in  accordance  with  the  penal law based on the original
  conviction; or
    (d) revoke probation in accordance with section 410.70 of this chapter
  and impose a sentence of imprisonment in accordance with the  penal  law
  based  on  the  original  conviction.  In  addition,  if  the  act which
  constitutes the violation of the order of protection or temporary  order
  of  protection  is  a  crime or a violation the defendant may be charged
  with and tried for that crime or violation.
    9. The chief administrator of the courts shall promulgate  appropriate
  uniform  temporary  order of protection and order of protection forms to
  be used throughout the state.
