What S 830 does, verified January 11, 2026

The proposed law aims to improve the handling of parole violators in New York. If a parole violator is arrested for violating their release conditions, they will have to be transferred to a state correctional facility or kept in a local correctional facility, depending on the circumstances. The costs associated with the transfer or temporary detention will be borne by the state. The law also allows for exceptions in cities with a population of over one million inhabitants or in cases where the court grants an extension to keep the violator in the local facility for up to twenty days. The law will take effect 120 days after it becomes a law.
