2009 New York Drug Sentencing Guide
What with all the drug law reforms happening in New York, we thought we’d put together a quick-and-easy guide to what they mean. Click here to view it in PDF form.
We used to do this all the time back when we were prosecuting cases with Special Narcotics. New York laws are so (unnecessarily) byzantine that a single chart really became necessary to figure out what they mean. We were often gratified to see nth-generation photocopies of our drug-law charts on various judges’ benches, and they were certainly popular in the office.
Standard warnings apply, of course: this is only a guide, and is not meant to be a substitute for legal research. And like everything else on this blog, it neither provides legal advice nor implies or creates an attorney-client relationship.
