NY S08236

Replaces broad "law enforcement agency" language with specific references to "police agency and prosecutorial agency" throughout the statute governing sexual offense evidence kit handling.

Requires police and prosecutorial agencies to inventory existing sexual offense evidence kits within ninety days and report totals to the division and forensic laboratories, with the division providing summaries to legislative leaders by March 1, 2017.

Shortens the deadline for submitting previously untested kits from one hundred eighty days to thirty days after the effective date of the section.

Clarifies that forensic laboratories must assess CODIS eligibility based on case-specific information before analyzing kits and report results within ninety days of receipt.

Establishes that failure to meet specified time limits does not automatically constitute grounds for a motion to suppress evidence under Criminal Procedure Law Section 710.20.
