    4    S  3. The executive law is amended by adding a new section 719 to read
    5  as follows:
    6    S 719. PUBLIC PROTECTION OF PUBLIC OFFICERS. 1.   LEGISLATIVE  INTENT.
    7  THE  LEGISLATURE FINDS AND DETERMINES THAT THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND THE
    8  UNITED STATES OF AMERICA HAVE  RECENTLY  SEEN  A  DISTURBING  NUMBER  OF
    9  RETALIATORY  ACTIONS  AGAINST  PUBLIC  OFFICERS  IN THE CONDUCT OF THEIR
   10  OFFICIAL DUTIES THAT PRESENT A PROFOUND THREAT TO OUR FREEDOM AND LIBER-
   11  TY AS A FREE PEOPLE. THESE ACTIONS OFTEN SEEK TO  CIRCUMVENT  THE  PROC-
   12  ESSES  OF FREE SPEECH, FAIR ELECTIONS, THE ADMINISTRATION OF JUSTICE AND
   13  THE PROPER CONDUCT OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM, TO  WHICH  OUR  CONSTITUTIONS
   14  ARE  DEDICATED,  AND  IN  AN  EFFORT  TO OBTAIN CHANGE, ENGAGE IN INTIM-
   15  IDATION, VIOLENCE, DEATH, DESTRUCTION AND/OR DECEPTION.
   16    THE LEGISLATURE FURTHER FINDS AND DETERMINES THAT ONE OF THE PRACTICES
   17  FREQUENTLY EMPLOYED BY PERSONS TAKING THESE RETALIATORY ACTIONS,  IN  AN
   18  EFFORT  TO  UNDERMINE  STATE  AUTHORITY AND CIVIL INTEGRITY, IS TO ISSUE
   19  ORDERS, JUDGMENTS, DECREES, PROCLAMATIONS OR OTHER QUASI JUDICIAL  DOCU-
   20  MENTS  FROM  WHAT  HAVE  BEEN  TERMED AS "COMMON LAW COURTS" OR "CITIZEN
   21  COURTS". THESE "COURTS" HAVE NO REAL STANDING AUTHORITY, IN LAW OR EQUI-
   22  TY, AND MERELY SERVE AS A SUBTERFUGE FOR THESE PERSONS.
   23    THE LEGISLATURE ADDITIONALLY FINDS AND DETERMINES THAT A FURTHER PRAC-
   24  TICE EMPLOYED BY PERSONS TAKING THESE RETALIATORY ACTIONS, IN AN  EFFORT
   25  TO  UNDERMINE STATE AUTHORITY AND CIVIL INTEGRITY, IS TO FILE RECORDS OR
   26  INSTRUMENTS, THAT ARE TRADITIONALLY RECOGNIZED UNDER THE  CIVIL  JUSTICE
   27  SYSTEM,  INCLUDING  LIENS AND ENCUMBRANCES OF REAL OR PERSONAL PROPERTY,
   28  IN RETALIATION FOR OR ON ACCOUNT OF  THE  PERFORMANCE  OF  THE  OFFICIAL
   29  DUTIES  OF  A  PUBLIC OFFICER.   THESE RECORDS OR INSTRUMENTS, WHICH ARE
   30  MERITLESS, FRIVOLOUS, FALSE, FICTITIOUS OR FRAUDULENT, ARE MERELY  FILED
   31  WITH THE PURPOSE TO INTIMIDATE OR INJURE THE PUBLIC OFFICIAL.
   32    THE  LEGISLATURE  FINALLY FINDS AND DECLARES THAT WHEN PUBLIC OFFICERS
   33  IN PERFORMANCE OF THEIR OFFICIAL DUTIES ARE ISSUED WITH CIVIL OR  CRIMI-
   34  NAL PAPERS FROM THESE "COMMON LAW COURTS" OR "CITIZEN COURTS", OR HAVE A
   35  MERITLESS,  FRIVOLOUS, FALSE, FICTITIOUS OR FRAUDULENT RECORD OR INSTRU-
   36  MENT FILED AGAINST THEM, A  GREAT  DEAL  OF  CONFUSION  AND  INJURY  CAN
   37  RESULT,  AND  THE  INTEGRITY  OF  OUR  REAL COURT AND JUDICIAL SYSTEM IS
   38  THEREBY THREATENED.  THESE MISFOUNDED INDIVIDUALS USE  THE  RESPECT  AND
   39  INTEGRITY  THAT  OUR  COURT  AND  JUDICIAL SYSTEM HAS TAKEN CENTURIES TO
   40  OBTAIN, TO INTIMIDATE THEIR VICTIMS AND IMPOSE THEIR WILL. IT IS A PROC-
   41  ESS BASED IN MISCONDUCT, FRAUD, DECEPTION, AND DECEIT, AND IT CANNOT  BE
   42  ALLOWED TO CONTINUE.
   43    2.  PUBLIC  OFFICER  PROTECTION  TEAM.    THERE SHALL BE ESTABLISHED A
   44  PUBLIC OFFICER PROTECTION TEAM.  SUCH TEAM SHALL CONSIST OF THE  COMMIS-
   45  SIONER  OF THE DIVISION, THE SUPERINTENDENT OF STATE POLICE, THE COMMIS-
   46  SIONER OF CRIMINAL JUSTICE SERVICES, THE  ATTORNEY  GENERAL,  THE  CHIEF
   47  ADMINISTRATIVE  JUDGE  OF THE OFFICE OF COURT ADMINISTRATION, THE PRESI-
   48  DENT OF THE NEW YORK STATE ASSOCIATION OF COUNTY CLERKS, AND THE  PRESI-
   49  DENT  OF  THE  NEW  YORK STATE SHERIFF'S ASSOCIATION. THE PUBLIC OFFICER
   50  PROTECTION TEAM SHALL MEET NO LESS THAN BIANNUALLY TO DISCUSS STRATEGIES
   51  AND DEVELOP RECOMMENDATIONS  TO  PROTECT  PUBLIC  OFFICERS  FROM  INTIM-
   52  IDATION,  THREATS,  VIOLENCE,  INJURY  AND  RETALIATION IN THE COURSE OF
   53  THEIR OFFICIAL DUTIES, AND THE REDUCTION OF THE  FILING  OF  RETALIATORY
   54  RECORDS  OR  INSTRUMENTS  AGAINST  PUBLIC  OFFICERS  AND JURISPRUDENTIAL
   55  FRAUD. ON OR BEFORE THE THIRTY-FIRST  OF  DECEMBER  OF  EACH  YEAR,  THE
   56  PUBLIC  OFFICER  PROTECTION  TEAM SHALL DEVELOP AND TRANSMIT RECOMMENDA-
       S. 4477                             3
    1  TIONS TO THE GOVERNOR, THE SPEAKER OF THE ASSEMBLY,  AND  THE  TEMPORARY
    2  PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE, ON LEGISLATIVE AND ADMINISTRATIVE MEASURES THAT
    3  CAN  BE  TAKEN  TO  PROTECT  PUBLIC OFFICERS FROM INTIMIDATION, THREATS,
    4  VIOLENCE, INJURY AND RETALIATION IN THE COURSE OF THEIR OFFICIAL DUTIES,
    5  AND  THE  REDUCTION  OF THE FILING OF RETALIATORY RECORDS OR INSTRUMENTS
    6  AGAINST PUBLIC OFFICERS AND JURISPRUDENTIAL FRAUD.
