        AN  ACT to amend the civil practice law and rules, in relation to appli-
          cation for an extreme risk protection order

          The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and  Assem-
        bly, do enact as follows:

     1    Section  1. Section 6341 of the civil practice law and rules, as added
     2  by chapter 19 of the laws of 2019, is amended to read as follows:
     3    § 6341. Application for an extreme risk protection order.  In  accord-
     4  ance  with  this  article,  a  petitioner may file an application, which
     5  shall be sworn, and accompanying supporting documentation, setting forth
     6  the facts and circumstances justifying the issuance of an  extreme  risk
     7  protection  order.    Provided  however, a police officer, as defined in
     8  section 1.20 of the criminal procedure law, shall  file  an  application
     9  for  an extreme risk order of protection when there is probable cause to
    10  believe the respondent is likely to engage in conduct that would  result
    11  in  serious harm to himself, herself or others, as defined in paragraphs
    12  one and two of subdivision (a) of section 9.39  of  the  mental  hygiene
    13  law.    Such application shall be sworn, and submitted with accompanying
    14  supporting documentation  setting  forth  the  facts  and  circumstances
    15  justifying the issuance of an extreme risk protection order. Such appli-
    16  cation  and supporting documentation shall be filed in the supreme court
    17  in the county in which the respondent resides. The  chief  administrator
    18  of  the  courts  shall adopt forms that may be used for purposes of such
    19  applications and the court's consideration of  such  applications.  Such
    20  application  form  shall  include  inquiry  as to whether the petitioner
    21  knows, or has reason to believe, that the respondent owns, possesses  or
    22  has  access to a firearm, rifle or shotgun and if so, a request that the
    23  petitioner list or describe such firearms, rifles and shotguns, and  the
    24  respective locations thereof, with as much specificity as possible.
    25    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
