Assembly lays aside several bills on criminal procedure and penal law
Summary
On the consent calendar Assembly No. 544a (criminal procedure) and Assembly No. 3359 (penal law) were read but laid aside rather than voted on; sponsors were listed but no floor action occurred on these items during the session.
Two bills on the consent calendar were laid aside during the session and not voted on. The clerk read Assembly No. 544a, an act to amend the criminal procedure law (sponsor: Miss Pollan), and the text or motion for that item was recorded as "laid aside." Later the clerk read Assembly No. 3359, an act introduced by Mr. Dinowitz concerning amendments to the penal law; that item was likewise laid aside.
Floor time did not include debate or votes on these items. The clerk’s floor statements—"This bill is laid aside"—indicate the items were deferred to a later time or calendar placement rather than passed or defeated during the session.
