    42  this  title if, upon consideration of the criteria specified in subdivi-
    43  sion two of section 722.22 of this article, it is determined that to  do
    44  so  would  be  in  the  interests of justice. Where, however, the felony
    45  complaint charges the juvenile offender with murder in the second degree
    46  as defined in section 125.25 of the penal law, rape in the first  degree

    54  following factors: (i) mitigating circumstances that bear directly  upon
    55  the manner in which the crime was committed; or (ii) where the defendant

        A. 794--D                          12

     1  was relatively minor although not so minor as to constitute a defense to
     2  the prosecution; or (iii) possible deficiencies in proof of the crime.
     3    §  29.  Subdivision 5 of section 722.21 of the criminal procedure law,
     4  as added by section 1-a of part WWW of chapter 59 of the laws  of  2017,

     8  action  against an adolescent offender charged with an offense listed in
     9  paragraph (a) of subdivision two of section 722.23 of this  article,  to
    10  the  family  court  pursuant  to the provisions of article seven hundred
    11  twenty-five of this title and upon consideration of the criteria  speci-
    12  fied  in subdivision two of section 722.22 of this article, it is deter-
    13  mined that to do so would be in the interests of justice. Where,  howev-
    14  er,  the felony complaint charges the adolescent offender with murder in
    15  the second degree as defined in section 125.25 of the penal law, rape in
    16  the first degree as defined in paragraph (a) of subdivision  one,  para-
    17  graph  (a)  of subdivision two and paragraph (a) of subdivision three of
    18  section 130.35 of the penal law,  [criminal  sexual  act  in  the  first
    19  degree  as  defined  in  subdivision  one of section 130.50 of the penal
    20  law,] or an armed felony as defined  in  paragraph  (a)  of  subdivision
    21  forty-one  of  section  1.20  of this chapter, a determination that such
    22  action be removed to the family court shall, in addition, be based  upon
    23  a  finding  of  one  or  more  of  the following factors: (i) mitigating
    24  circumstances that bear directly upon the manner in which the crime  was
    25  committed;  or  (ii) where the defendant was not the sole participant in
    26  the crime, the defendant's participation was relatively  minor  although
    27  not  so  minor  as  to constitute a defense to the prosecution; or (iii)
    28  possible deficiencies in proof of the crime.
    29    § 30. Paragraph (b) of subdivision 1 of section 722.22 of the criminal
    30  procedure law, as added by section 1-a of part WWW of chapter 59 of  the
    31  laws of 2017, is amended to read as follows:
    32    (b)  with  the  consent  of the district attorney, order removal of an
    33  action involving an indictment charging a juvenile offender with  murder
    34  in the second degree as defined in section 125.25 of the penal law; rape
    35  in  the  first  degree,  as defined in paragraph (a) of subdivision one,

    38  degree, as defined in subdivision one of section  130.50  of  the  penal
    39  law];  or  an  armed  felony  as defined in paragraph (a) of subdivision
    40  forty-one of section 1.20 of this chapter, to the family court  pursuant
    41  to  the provisions of article seven hundred twenty-five of this title if
    42  the court finds one or more of the  following  factors:  (i)  mitigating
    43  circumstances  that bear directly upon the manner in which the crime was
    44  committed; (ii) where the defendant was not the sole participant in  the
    45  crime,  the  defendant's participation was relatively minor although not
    46  so minor as to constitute a defense to the prosecution; or (iii)  possi-
    47  ble  deficiencies in the proof of the crime, and, after consideration of
    48  the factors set forth in subdivision two  of  this  section,  the  court
    49  determined  that  removal  of the action to the family court would be in
    50  the interests of justice.
    51    § 31. Subparagraph (iii) of paragraph (g) of subdivision 5 of  section
    52  220.10  of  the criminal procedure law, as amended by chapter 264 of the
    53  laws of 2003, is amended to read as follows:
    54    (iii) Where the indictment  does  not  charge  a  crime  specified  in
    55  subparagraph  (i) of this paragraph, the district attorney may recommend
    56  removal of the action to the family court. Upon making such  recommenda-

        A. 794--D                          13

     1  tion  the district attorney shall submit a subscribed memorandum setting
     2  forth: (1) a recommendation that the interests of justice would best  be
     3  served  by  removal  of  the  action to the family court; and (2) if the
     4  indictment  charges  a thirteen year old with the crime of murder in the
     5  second degree, or a fourteen or fifteen year old with the crimes of rape
     6  in the first degree as defined in  paragraph  (a)  of  subdivision  one,
     7  paragraph  (a) of subdivision two and paragraph (a) of subdivision three
     8  of section 130.35 of the penal law, [or criminal sexual act in the first
     9  degree as defined in subdivision one of  section  130.50  of  the  penal
    10  law,]  or  an  armed  felony  as defined in paragraph (a) of subdivision
    11  forty-one of section 1.20 of this chapter specific factors, one or  more
    12  of which reasonably supports the recommendation, showing, (i) mitigating
    13  circumstances  that bear directly upon the manner in which the crime was
    14  committed, or (ii) where the defendant was not the sole  participant  in
    15  the  crime,  that  the  defendant's  participation  was relatively minor
    16  although not so minor as to constitute a defense to the prosecution,  or
    17  (iii)  possible  deficiencies  in  proof of the crime, or (iv) where the
    18  juvenile offender has no previous adjudications of  having  committed  a
    19  designated  felony act, as defined in subdivision eight of section 301.2
    20  of the family court act, regardless of the age of the  offender  at  the
    21  time  of  commission of the act, that the criminal act was not part of a
    22  pattern of criminal behavior and, in view of the history of  the  offen-
    23  der, is not likely to be repeated.
    24    §  32.  Subdivision 6 of section 300.50 of the criminal procedure law,
    25  as amended by chapter 264 of the laws of 2003, is  amended  to  read  as
    26  follows:
    27    6.  For  purposes  of  this section, the offenses of rape in the third
    28  degree as defined in [subdivision three] subdivisions seven,  eight  and
    29  nine  of section 130.25 of the penal law [and criminal sexual act in the
    30  third degree as defined in subdivision three of section  130.40  of  the
    31  penal  law],  are  not  lesser  included  offenses  of rape in the first
    32  degree[, criminal sexual act in the first degree] or any other  offense.
    33  Notwithstanding  the foregoing, [either] any such offense may be submit-
    34  ted as a lesser included offense of the applicable first degree  offense
    35  when  (i) there is a reasonable view of the evidence which would support
    36  a finding that the defendant committed such lesser offense but  did  not
    37  commit  the  greater  offense,  and  (ii)  both  parties  consent to its
    38  submission.
    39    § 32-a. Subdivision 6 of section 380.50 of the criminal procedure law,

    53  victim services, on which  the  victim  may  indicate  a  demand  to  be
    54  informed  of  any  petition  to  change the name of such defendant. Such
