Defender utility
NY PDs on ERPO/TERPO calendars: animal-cruelty evidence is now an express statutory factor, not a free-floating inference. Contest recency, 'aggravated cruelty' elements, and any leap from animal harm to likelihood of firearm harm. Does not itself create a Penal Law weapons count. Not a California GVRO.
Who this is for. NY PDs on TERPO/ERPO calendars — live Ch. 450 animal-cruelty factor; not a California GVRO.
