MONDAY, MARCH 11, 2019 5:02 P.M.

SPEAKER HEASTIE: THE HOUSE WILL COME TO

ORDER.

IN THE ABSENCE OF CLERGY, LET US PAUSE FOR A MOMENT OF

SILENCE IN HONOR OF A MAN WHO SERVED THIS HOUSE IN MANY CAPACITIES,

INCLUDING THE PRIVILEGE AS ITS SPEAKER, OUR FORMER COLLEAGUE MEL

MILLER. WHILE WE WILL HONOR MEL AND OTHER COLLEAGUES WHOM WE HAVE

LOST DURING OUR TRADITIONAL MEMORIAL LATER IN THE SESSION, IT'S FITTING AT

THIS TIME TO TAKE THIS MOMENT AS A REMEMBRANCE OF THIS MAN, HIS

DEDICATION TO PUBLIC SERVICE, HIS LOVE OF THIS ASSEMBLY AND THE

FRIENDSHIP HE SHARED WITH US IN THIS CHAMBER, AND THAT BIG GRIN THAT HE

USED TO HAVE WHEN HE WOULD COME HERE AND SAY HELLO. SO, LET'S TAKE A

MOMENT OF SILENCE IN HIS HONOR.

NYS ASSEMBLY MARCH 11, 2019

(WHEREUPON, A MOMENT OF SILENCE WAS OBSERVED.)

THANK YOU. MAY HE REST IN PEACE.

VISITORS ARE INVITED TO JOIN MEMBERS IN THE PLEDGE OF

ALLEGIANCE.

(WHEREUPON, SPEAKER HEASTIE LED VISITORS AND

MEMBERS IN THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE.)

SPEAKER HEASTIE: A QUORUM BEING PRESENT, THE

CLERK WILL READ THE JOURNAL OF FRIDAY, MARCH 8TH.

MRS. PEOPLES-STOKES.

MRS. PEOPLES-STOKES: MR. SPEAKER, I MOVE TO

DISPENSE WITH THE FURTHER READING OF THE JOURNAL OF FRIDAY, MARCH THE

8TH AND ASK THAT THE SAME STAND APPROVED.

IT IS GENERALLY AT THIS TIME, MR. SPEAKER, THAT WE DO

OFFER FOR OUR COLLEAGUES AND GUESTS AND STAFF IN THE CHAMBERS A QUOTE,

AND GIVEN THAT IT'S WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH, WE'RE GOING TO TRY TO KEEP

THOSE QUOTES FROM A WOMAN OF DISTINCTION. THE YOUNG LADY WE'RE

GOING TO QUOTE FROM TODAY IS HELLEN KELLER. MANY OF US LEARNED ABOUT

HER YEARS AGO WHILE ATTENDING ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, BUT HER WORDS STILL

HAVE VERY VALID MEANINGS FOR TODAY, AND THE QUOTE WE'RE USING TODAY

IS, "WHEN WE DO THE BEST WE CAN, WE NEVER KNOW WHAT MIRACLE IS

WROUGHT IN OUR LIFE, OR IN THE LIFE OF ANOTHER." AGAIN, MR. SPEAKER,

THAT'S HELLEN KELLER.

MR. SPEAKER, FOR THE MEMBERS' ATTENTION, WE DO HAVE

ON OUR DESK A MAIN CALENDAR WITH 31 NEW BILLS, BEGINNING WITH

CALENDAR NO. 92. AFTER ANY INTRODUCTIONS AND HOUSEKEEPING, WE CAN

NYS ASSEMBLY MARCH 11, 2019

BEGIN OUR CONSENT WITH THESE BILLS AND, MR. SPEAKER, THERE WILL BE A

NEED FOR ANOTHER MAJORITY CONFERENCE IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING THE CLOSE

OF SESSION TODAY.

ACTING SPEAKER AUBRY: THANK YOU, MADAM

MAJORITY LEADER, BUT ON YOUR MOTION, WITHOUT OBJECTION, SO ORDERED.

AND WE DO HAVE HOUSEKEEPING.

ON A MOTION BY MR. GOTTFRIED, PAGE 4, CALENDAR NO.

100, BILL NO. A1125, AMENDMENTS ARE RECEIVED AND ADOPTED.

FOR THE PURPOSES OF A [SIC] INTRODUCTION, MR. CUSICK.

MR. CUSICK: THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MR. SPEAKER.

AS YOU KNOW, MR. SPEAKER AND MY COLLEAGUES, KNOW TONIGHT IS THE

AMERICAN-IRISH LEGISLATORS ANNUAL DINNER. SO, THOSE OF YOU WHO'D LIKE

TO ATTEND, IT'S TONIGHT, HOPEFULLY AT AN EARLY HOUR. BUT, BECAUSE TONIGHT

IS OUR EVENT, WE HAVE MANY DIGNITARIES WHO ARE UP VISITING US HERE IN

ALBANY. BUT SOMEBODY WHO HAS JOINED US TODAY WHO IS NO STRANGER TO

MANY OF MY COLLEAGUES IN THE ROOM IS CONSUL GENERAL FOR IRELAND IN

NEW YORK, CIARÁN MADDEN. AMBASSADOR MADDEN IS NO STRANGER TO

MANY OF US. HE WORKS WITH THE IRISH COMMUNITIES IN MANY OF OUR

DISTRICTS. HE WORKS TO PROMOTE TRADE AND INVESTMENT BETWEEN IRELAND

AND NEW YORK, BUT HE ALSO WORKS AS A SERVICE TO MANY OF THE IRISH

WHO ARE HERE IN NEW YORK STATE AND NEW YORK CITY. SO, MR.

SPEAKER, IF YOU WOULD, IF YOU COULD WELCOME AMBASSADOR MADDEN TO

THE CHAMBER AND GIVE HIM THE CORDIALITIES OF THE HOUSE.

ACTING SPEAKER AUBRY: CERTAINLY. ON BEHALF

OF MR. CUSICK, THE SPEAKER AND ALL THE MEMBERS, AMBASSADOR, WE

NYS ASSEMBLY MARCH 11, 2019

WELCOME YOU HERE TO THE NEW YORK STATE ASSEMBLY, EXTEND TO YOU THE

PRIVILEGES OF THE FLOOR. THIS IS THE PEOPLE'S HOUSE. WE HOPE THAT YOUR

TIME HERE IN ALBANY WILL BE BENEFICIAL AND THAT THE GOODWILL BETWEEN

OUR COUNTRIES WILL BE SPREAD, PARTICULARLY BETWEEN NEW YORK STATE AND

IRELAND. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR BEING HERE AND YOU ARE ALWAYS

WELCOME. THANK YOU.

ACTING SPEAKER AUBRY: THE CLERK WILL READ.

THE CLERK: SENATE BILL NO. S01264, CALENDAR NO.

25, GIANARIS (DINOWITZ--A01489). AN ACT TO AMEND THE CIVIL PRACTICE

LAW AND RULES, IN RELATION TO THE ADMISSIBILITY OF IMAGES, MAPS,

LOCATIONS, DISTANCES, CALCULATIONS OR OTHER INFORMATION FOR A WEB

MAPPING SERVICE.

ACTING SPEAKER AUBRY: AN EXPLANATION IS

REQUESTED, MR. DINOWITZ, BUT YOU WILL WAIT ONE MINUTE BECAUSE WE

HAVE A [SIC] ACTIVE GROUP OF LEGISLATORS AND SERGEANT-AT-ARMS RIGHT

CLOSE TO HIM. YEAH, LOOK LIKE IT. THANK YOU.

YOU MAY PROCEED, SIR.

MR. DINOWITZ: THIS IS A CHAPTER AMENDMENT TO A

BILL WE PASSED LAST YEAR AND IT ENACTS SIMILAR PROVISIONS RELATED TO THE

ADMISSIBILITY OF INFORMATION TAKEN FROM A WEB MAPPING SERVICE, A

GLOBAL SATELLITE IMAGING SITE OR INTERNET MAPPING TOOL. AND WHAT IT

DOES IS IT PROVIDES FOR THE ADMISSIBILITY INTO EVIDENCE OF INFORMATION

TAKEN FROM ONE OF THOSE THREE THINGS THAT I JUST MENTIONED. AND THE

INFORMATION HAS TO INDICATE THE DATE IT WAS CREATED, AND IT'S SUBJECT TO

CHALLENGE THAT IT DOES NOT FAIRLY AND ACCURATELY PORTRAY THAT WHICH IT IS

BEING OFFERED TO PROVE. AND IF THE INFORMATION IS NOT CHALLENGED IN A

NYS ASSEMBLY MARCH 11, 2019

TIMELY FASHION, THE COURT SHALL TAKE JUDICIAL NOTICE AND ADMIT THE

INFORMATION INTO EVIDENCE.

ACTING SPEAKER AUBRY: MR. GOODELL.

MR. GOODELL: THANK YOU, MR. SPEAKER, WOULD

THE SPONSOR YIELD?

ACTING SPEAKER AUBRY: WILL YOU YIELD, MR.

DINOWITZ?

MR. DINOWITZ: YES.

ACTING SPEAKER AUBRY: THE SPONSOR YIELDS.

MR. GOODELL: THANK YOU, MR. -- MR. DINOWITZ. I

APPRECIATE IT. IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THAT UNDER CURRENT LAW, I SHOULD

SAY WITHOUT ANY LEGISLATIVE ADDITIONS, A COURT IS EMPOWERED TO TAKE

JUDICIAL NOTICE OF ANY FACT THAT'S CAPABLE OF IMMEDIATE AND ACCURATE

DETERMINATION BY RESORT TO EASILY ACCESSIBLE SOURCES OF INDISPUTABLE

ACCURACY; IS THAT A REASONABLE SUMMARY OF WHAT "JUDICIAL NOTICE" IS?

MR. DINOWITZ: REASONABLE.

MR. GOODELL: AND ISN'T IT TRUE THAT IF THESE

MAPPING SERVICES WERE, IN FACT, OF INDISPUTABLE ACCURACY, THE COURTS,

USING THE CONCEPTS OF JUDICIAL NOTICE HAVE BEEN AROUND FOR OVER 130

YEARS COULD TAKE JUDICIAL NOTICE OF THOSE FACTS; ISN'T THAT TRUE?

MR. DINOWITZ: MAYBE.

MR. GOODELL: ARE YOU FAMILIAR WITH THE FACT THAT

ALMOST EVERY ONE OF THESE MAPPING SERVICES ALSO HAVE A DISCLAIMER

ABOUT THEIR ACCURACY? ARE YOU FAMILIAR WITH THOSE DISCLAIMERS?

MR. DINOWITZ: NO, BECAUSE I DON'T REALLY LOOK AT

NYS ASSEMBLY MARCH 11, 2019

THOSE MAPPING SERVICES.

MR. GOODELL: SO, IF YOU LOOK UP GOOGLE MAPS,

THERE'S A -- WHAT YOU WOULD EXPECT, A LEGAL DISCLAIMER BECAUSE GOOGLE

DOESN'T WANT TO BE SUED IF IT TURNS OUT ONE OF THEIR MAPS ISN'T ACCURATE.

I PULLED UP ONE OF THOSE DISCLAIMERS FROM THE GIS MAP THAT APPLIES IN

CHAUTAUQUA COUNTY, WHICH SAYS, THE MAPS AND INFORMATION FOUND

HEREIN ARE PROVIDED AS IS. THERE'S NO WARRANTIES OR GUARANTEES

EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT

MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE CONCERNING THE

MAPS OR THE INFORMATION CONTAINED THEREIN. AND IT GOES ON TO SAY, THE

USER USES ANY OF THE INFORMATION FOUND IN THIS APPLICATION WITH THE

ENTIRE RISK ON THE USER. AND THEN IT GOES ON -- I MEAN, IT'S A LONG, LONG

EXPLANATION, DISCLAIMER. SO MY QUESTION IS, IF THESE MAPS COME WITH A

LONG AND DETAILED EXPLANATION OF WHY THEY SHOULDN'T BE ACCEPTED AS

ACCURATE, WHY SHOULD WE, BY STATUTE, CORRECT COURTS TO TAKE JUDICIAL

NOTICE WHEREIN ALL OTHER ASPECTS OF THE LAW THEY ONLY TAKE NOTICE OF

INDISPUTABLE FACTS?

MR. DINOWITZ: WELL, I MEAN, YOU OFTEN SEE

DISCLAIMERS ON A LOT OF THINGS FOR -- TO AFFORD THEMSELVES PROTECTION.

THAT DOESN'T MEAN THERE'S ANY REASON TO DISPUTE THAT. I MEAN, YOU LOOK

AT INGREDIENTS ON FOOD WHERE IT SAYS, THIS PRODUCT MAY CONTAIN

PEANUTS, SO WHAT? THAT -- THAT -- WHAT YOU SAID DOES NOT NECESSARILY

MEAN THAT SOMETHING IS INACCURATE, AND THE WAY THE BILL IS NOW WRITTEN

- AND IT'S A DIFFERENT BILL - I THINK YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT, BY THE WAY, THE

ORIGINAL LAW BEFORE WE AMENDED IT LAST YEAR, BUT IN EITHER CASE, WHAT

NYS ASSEMBLY MARCH 11, 2019

WE'RE DOING NOW IS IN ADDITION TO SOME OF THE THINGS WE HAD LAST YEAR,

WE'RE ALSO MAKING SURE THAT THERE'S A DATE ON THERE. FURTHERMORE, THE

PROPONENT PUTS THIS FORTH, BUT THERE'S AN OPPORTUNITY TO OBJECT TO IT IF

IT'S DONE IN A TIMELY FASHION, AS SPECIFIED IN THE LEGISLATION.

MR. GOODELL: UNDER YOUR BILL, WOULD THE COURT

THEN HAVE THE RIGHT TO TAKE JUDICIAL NOTICE OF THE DISCLAIMER?

MR. DINOWITZ: THE COURT -- I THINK THE BILL IS

PRETTY CLEAR ON WHAT IT SAYS. IT SAYS IT PROVIDES FOR THE ADMISSIBILITY

INTO EVIDENCE OF THOSE THREE WEB MAPPING SERVICE, ET CETERA. THE COURT

CAN TAKE JUDICIAL NOTICE IF THE PROPONENT IS -- IS ASKING THAT, BUT THAT

CAN BE DISPUTED AS LONG AS IT'S -- AND THIS HAS TO BE DONE WITHIN 30

DAYS, AND THEN THE OPPONENT TO THAT HAS TO OBJECT TO IT WITHIN A CERTAIN

PERIOD OF TIME, TEN DAYS, AS WELL. SO, THE OPPORTUNITY IS THERE TO

OBJECT.

MR. GOODELL: SO UNDER NORMAL RULES OF EVIDENCE

THAT APPLY IN ALL OTHER SITUATIONS, THE COURT CAN TAKE JUDICIAL NOTICE ON

ITS OWN. DOES THAT STILL APPLY HERE?

MR. DINOWITZ: THE COURT CAN TAKE JUDICIAL NOTICE,

OR IT CAN BE ASKED TO DO SO.

MR. GOODELL: AND IN THAT CASE, THE COURT CAN TAKE

JUDICIAL NOTICE THAT THE MAP THAT IT'S TAKING JUDICIAL NOTICE OF HAS A

DISCLAIMER THAT DISQUALIFIES THE MAP FOR BEING USED FOR ALMOST ANY

PURPOSE? I DON'T KNOW IF I QUITE UNDERSTAND HOW THIS QUITE WORKS.

MR. DINOWITZ: I DON'T KNOW IF -- I DON'T KNOW THAT

I SEE THAT WRITTEN INTO THE BILL HERE AT ALL.

NYS ASSEMBLY MARCH 11, 2019

MR. GOODELL: I SEE.

MR. DINOWITZ: IT'S -- THE BILL SAYS THE COURT CAN

TAKE JUDICIAL NOTICE.

MR. GOODELL: NOW, AS YOU KNOW, MAPS ARE

CREATED FOR MANY PURPOSES. A GIS MAP, FOR EXAMPLE, IN MY COUNTY

WAS CREATED BY THE TAX MAP DEPARTMENT TO GIVE AN IDEA OF WHERE THE

TAX PARCELS WERE FOR TAX REASONS. THEY ARE VERY CLEAR THAT THEIR MAP IS

NOT A SURVEY AND SHOULDN'T BE USED FOR ANY OTHER REASON. BUT UNDER

THIS BILL, YOU COULD NOT ONLY USE IT TO DETERMINE THE LOCATION OF TAX

PARCELS, BUT ACCORDING TO LANGUAGE IN THE BILL, YOU COULD USE IT TO

CALCULATE DISTANCE, CALCULATIONS OR OTHER INFORMATION. WOULD YOU

DESCRIBE FOR ME WHAT MIGHT BE INCORPORATED WITHIN THE PHRASE "OTHER

INFORMATION"?

MR. DINOWITZ: INFORMATION OTHER THAN WHAT WAS

SPECIFICALLY MENTIONED.

MR. GOODELL: SO ANYTHING THAT'S ON THE MAP?

MR. DINOWITZ: WELL, ANYTHING THAT'S REASONABLE, I

WOULD THINK, BUT WHAT ELSE WOULD BE TALKING ABOUT EXCEPT WHAT IS

SPECIFICALLY MENTIONED IN THE BILL?

MR. GOODELL: WELL, A TYPICAL -- A TYPICAL GIS

MAP MIGHT SHOW SCHOOL DISTRICTS, FIRE DISTRICTS, WETLANDS, STATE

WETLANDS, FEDERAL WETLANDS. I MEAN JUST -- LOCATION OF POWER LINES. I

MEAN, IT'S JUST A RAFT LOAD OF INFORMATION, BY THE WAY, THAT'S ADDED BY

THE CREATORS OF THE MAP SOLELY AS A COURTESY WITH A WRITTEN DISCLAIMER

THAT THOSE -- THAT INFORMATION SHOULDN'T BE RELIED UPON. I MEAN, THESE

NYS ASSEMBLY MARCH 11, 2019

MAPS CAN HAVE DOZENS OF OVERLAYS. UNDER THIS BILL, ALL OF THOSE

OVERLAYS WOULD BE ADMISSIBLE?

MR. DINOWITZ: THE COURT CAN TAKE JUDICIAL NOTICE

IF THERE'S NO OBJECTION. IF THERE IS AN OBJECTION, IF THERE IS AN OBJECTION,

THEN THE JUDGE -- THE COURT HAS DISCRETION.

MR. GOODELL: NOW NORMALLY, A PROPONENT OF A

FACT HAS A BURDEN OF PROOF AND IT'S UP TO THE PROPONENT TO COME

TOGETHER AND LAY A FOUNDATION, AND THE FOUNDATION IS AN EXPLANATION

WITH CREDIBLE WITNESSES AS TO THE ACCURACY OF THE INFORMATION THEY'RE

PRESENTING. IF IT'S A PHOTOGRAPH, FOR EXAMPLE, THE FOUNDATION WOULD

INCLUDE WHAT TYPE OF LENS, WHETHER IT'S A WIDE ANGLE LENS OR A --

WHATEVER THE TYPE OF LENS IS SO YOU CAN BETTER UNDERSTAND THE ACCURACY

OF THE PHOTOGRAPH, BUT UNDER THIS BILL, THERE'S NO NEED FOR ANY

FOUNDATION FOR ANY OF THESE MAPS, CORRECT?

MR. DINOWITZ: WELL, I MEAN, THESE -- THIS TYPE OF

TECHNOLOGY -- WE ARE IN THE 21ST CENTURY NOW AND WE HAVE TECHNOLOGY

AVAILABLE THAT HAD NOT BEEN PREVIOUSLY AVAILABLE; HOWEVER, ULTIMATELY

IT'S UP TO THE COURT. IF THERE'S NO OBJECTION, THEN -- THEN THE COURT CAN

TAKE JUDICIAL NOTICE; HOWEVER, THE PROOF IS SUBJECT TO OBJECTION AND IF

THERE IS AN OBJECTION, THEN IT'S UP TO THE DISCRETION OF THE COURT.

MR. GOODELL: NOW, YOU KNOW, OF COURSE GOOGLE

STREET MAPS, I MEAN, THEY'RE KIND OF FUN TO LOOK AT, YOU KNOW, THEY'RE

KIND OF INTERACTIVE, BUT, YOU KNOW THOSE ARE OFTEN UPLOADED BY

VOLUNTEERS, NOT PROFESSIONALS, CORRECT?

MR. DINOWITZ: I ACTUALLY DON'T KNOW WHO UPLOADS

NYS ASSEMBLY MARCH 11, 2019

THEM.

MR. GOODELL: I SEE.

MR. DINOWITZ: I JUST KNOW THAT I DOWNLOAD THEM.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENS AT THE OTHER END.

MR. GOODELL: AND SO, IF SOMEONE WERE TO

QUESTION THE ACCURACY - BECAUSE THEY'RE WIDE ANGLE LENSES AND IT'S A

VERY DISTORTED VIEW - IF ANYONE WAS QUESTIONING -- UNDER YOUR BILL,

NOW, THE BURDEN OF PROOF SHIFTS FROM THE PROPONENT TO THE PERSON WHO

IS QUESTIONING, RIGHT?

MR. DINOWITZ: WELL, THE -- THE OPPONENT TO THIS

HAS THE OPPORTUNITY TO OBJECT --

MR. GOODELL: BUT THEN --

MR. DINOWITZ: -- AND SUBMIT WHATEVER PROOF HE

OR SHE WANTS.

MR. GOODELL: SO THEN THE BURDEN OF PROOF IS THEN

SHIFTED TO THE OPPONENT WHO THEN HAS TO BEAR THE BURDEN AND THE COST

OF GETTING AN ACCURATE SURVEY OR ACCURATE PHOTOS OR SOME OTHER

ACCURATE INFORMATION TO MAKE THEIR CASE, RIGHT?

MR. DINOWITZ: I DON'T KNOW THAT I WOULD

CHARACTERIZE IT QUITE LIKE THAT.

MR. GOODELL: WELL, MY QUESTION THEN IS WHY, AS

A MATTER OF JUSTICE, DO WE WANT TO SHIFT THE COST OF PROVING A FACT FROM

THE PERSON WHO IS PRESENTING THAT FACT AND SHIFT THAT COST OVER ON THE

OTHER SIDE TO PROVE THAT IT'S NOT ACCURATE, ESPECIALLY WHEN THE VERY FACT

IT'S BEING PRESENTED TO THE COURT COMES WITH A DISCLAIMER THAT IT'S NOT

NYS ASSEMBLY MARCH 11, 2019

ACCURATE.

MR. DINOWITZ: WELL, I'M GOING TO READ TO YOU A

VERY SHORT STATEMENT, IF I CAN FIND IT, HERE, FROM THE GOVERNOR WHEN HE

SIGNED THE ORIGINAL -- FROM THE GOVERNOR WHEN HE SIGNED THE ORIGINAL

BILL. AND IT SAYS, "CURRENTLY EVIDENTIARY PRACTICE IN NEW YORK

REQUIRES A PARTY SEEKING TO INTRODUCE AN IMAGE MAP, LOCATION, DISTANCE,

CALCULATION OR OTHER INFORMATION GLEANED FROM GOOGLE MAPS OR SIMILAR

COMPUTER APPLICATION TO FIRST ESTABLISH THE FOUNDATION FOR THE USE OF

SUCH INFORMATION. NEXT, ESTABLISH THE VALIDITY OF THE COMPUTER

APPLICATION AND, FINALLY, ESTABLISH A CHAIN OF CUSTODY FOR THE EVIDENCE.

THIS BILL WOULD ELIMINATE SUCH COMPLEX AUTHENTICATION ISSUES

ASSOCIATED WITH QUALIFYING DIGITAL EVIDENCE, WHICH OFTEN REQUIRES MORE

THAN ONE WITNESS TO TESTIFY IN COURT." AND THEN IT GOES ON.

THE POINT BEING THAT WE'RE IN A DIFFERENT PLACE NOW

THAN WE WERE, SAY, 20 YEARS AGO AND TO MAKE IT SO DIFFICULT, SO ONEROUS,

SO BURDENSOME TO ADMIT INTO EVIDENCE THAT WHICH WE NOW TAKE AS -- AS

FACTS DOESN'T MAKE SENSE. IF WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT -- THAT COURT

PROCEEDINGS CAN PROCEED IN AN EXPEDITIOUS FASHION, AND THIS DOES SO

WITHOUT VIOLATING ANYBODY'S RIGHTS; IT GIVES PEOPLE THE OPPORTUNITY TO

OBJECT AND HOPEFULLY COME OUT IN A FAIR FASHION.

MR. GOODELL: THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR

COMMENTS.

ON THE BILL.

ACTING SPEAKER AUBRY: ON THE BILL, SIR.

MR. GOODELL: FOR 130 YEARS, THE COURTS IN NEW

NYS ASSEMBLY MARCH 11, 2019

YORK STATE HAVE TAKEN JUDICIAL NOTICE OF ALL THE FACTS IN A CASE THAT ARE

INDISPUTABLE, FOR 130 YEARS. IT'S NOT LIKE IT'S A NEW CONCEPT. IT'S BEEN

AROUND SINCE 1889. THERE'S ABSOLUTELY NO REASON FOR THE LEGISLATURE TO

STEP IN AND SAY TO THE COURTS, HEY, GUESS WHAT? THERE'S A WHOLE

CATEGORY OF FACTS THAT ARE IN DISPUTE AND WE WANT YOU TO TAKE JUDICIAL

NOTICE OF DISPUTED FACTS. WHY WOULD WE EVER DO THAT, MY FRIENDS?

ANY ONE OF US OR ANY ONE OF OUR CONSTITUENTS MAY AT SOME POINT BE A

PLAINTIFF OR A DEFENDANT IN SOME CIVIL LITIGATION AND BEFORE WE PULL THE

RULES OF EVIDENCE AND SAY YOU CANNOT TAKE JUDICIAL NOTICE OF A FACT THAT

MIGHT NOT BE ACCURATE, WE SHOULD LEAVE THAT DECISION TO THE COURTS.

THEY KNOW HOW TO DETERMINE WHAT TO TAKE JUDICIAL NOTICE OF. THEY

DON'T NEED US TO CARVE OUT A LITTLE EXCEPTION.

SO, WHAT IS THIS EXCEPTION THAT WE'RE BEING ASKED, TO

OVERRULE THE COURT SYSTEM ON AND DIRECT THEM TO TAKE JUDICIAL NOTICE.

THE EXCEPTION IS MAPS THAT COME WITH A DISCLAIMER. WE WANT THE

COURTS TO ACCEPT JUDICIALLY THE ACCURACY OF MAPS THAT ARE ACCOMPANIED

BY A STATEMENT THAT SAYS THESE MAPS ARE NOT ACCURATE; THEY SHOULD NOT

BE RELIED ON; THEY'RE NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR A SURVEY; THEY'RE NOT INTENDED

FOR AND SHOULD NOT BE USED TO ESTABLISH BOUNDARY LINES, LOCATIONS OR TO

PROVIDE ANY OTHER INFORMATION FOR ANY OTHER PURPOSE.

WE'RE ASKING THE COURT TO SAY WE'RE IGNORING THE

DISCLAIMER THAT COMES WITH THESE MAPS AND WE'RE SHIFTING THE BURDEN

AND THE COST ONTO THE OTHER SIDE TO PROVE THAT A FACT THAT'S NOT

INDISPUTABLE ISN'T INDISPUTABLE. FOR THESE REASONS, I WOULD RECOMMEND

WE NOT SUPPORT THIS BILL. THANK YOU AGAIN TO MY COLLEAGUE. THANK

NYS ASSEMBLY MARCH 11, 2019

YOU, MR. SPEAKER.

ACTING SPEAKER AUBRY: READ THE LAST SECTION.

THE CLERK: THIS ACT SHALL TAKE EFFECT IMMEDIATELY.

ACTING SPEAKER AUBRY: THE CLERK WILL RECORD

THE VOTE.

(THE CLERK RECORDED THE VOTE.)

ACTING SPEAKER D. ROSENTHAL: ARE THERE

ANY OTHER VOTES? ANNOUNCE THE RESULTS.

(THE CLERK ANNOUNCED THE RESULTS.)

THE BILL IS PASSED.

MR. RAMOS.

MR. RAMOS: MR. SPEAKER, CAN WE GO TO CALENDAR

NO. 33, PAGE 11, MR. LAVINE.

ACTING SPEAKER D. ROSENTHAL: THE CLERK

WILL READ.

THE CLERK: ASSEMBLY NO. A02682-A, CALENDAR

NO. 33, LAVINE, CUSICK, PAULIN, L. ROSENTHAL, LUPARDO, BUCHWALD,

JAFFEE, ABINANTI, SIMON, DINOWITZ, BLAKE, FAHY, ROZIC, LIFTON,

CARROLL, GALEF, TAYLOR, D'URSO, QUART, GRIFFIN, JACOBSON. AN ACT TO

AMEND THE ELECTION LAW, IN RELATION TO ENACTING THE VOTER FRIENDLY

BALLOT ACT; AND TO REPEAL SECTION 7-108 OF SUCH LAW RELATING TO THE

FORM OF BALLOTS.

ACTING SPEAKER D. ROSENTHAL: AN

EXPLANATION IS REQUESTED. OH -- ON A MOTION BY THE SENATE -- ON A

MOTION BY THE SENATE BILL [SIC] IS BEFORE THE HOUSE. THE SENATE BILL IS

NYS ASSEMBLY MARCH 11, 2019

ADVANCED.

AN EXPLANATION IS REQUESTED.

MR. LAVINE: THANK YOU. WHEN THE VOTER FRIENDLY

BALLOT ACT WAS DRAFTED, THE IDEA WAS TO FIX, IN SECTION 15, THE TIME FOR

THE PUBLIC INSPECTION OF BALLOTS. 7-128 OF THE ELECTION LAW CURRENTLY

PROVIDES A FIVE DAY PRE-ELECTION INSPECTION DEADLINE, WHICH CREATES AN

IMPOSSIBLE TIME PERIOD TO FIX ANY ERRORS AND REPRINT OR RETEST ALL VOTING

EQUIPMENT FOR THE ELECTION. THE NEW DATE -- THE NEW DATE AND --

PROPOSED IN THIS BILL MOVES THE INSPECTION DEADLINE TO 28 DAYS BEFORE

THE ELECTION. WHEN THE UNIFORM PRIMARY LAW WAS ADOPTED - AND THAT'S

CHAPTER 5 - THE DEADLINE FOR THE STATE AND COUNTY BOARDS OF ELECTION

TO CERTIFY THE BALLOT ISSUES MOVE FROM 35 AND 34 DAYS BEFORE AN

ELECTION TO 55 AND 54 DAYS BEFORE A PRIMARY OR GENERAL ELECTION.

I HOPE EVERYBODY'S LISTENING, BECAUSE YOU'RE ALL GOING

TO BE TESTED ON THIS AS SOON AS I SHUT UP.

(LAUGHTER)

SO ONCE THE CANDIDATES ARE CERTIFIED, THE COUNTY

BOARDS NEED SOME TIME TO PREPARE A DRAFT BALLOT AND MAKE -- MAKE THE

SAME AVAILABLE FOR PUBLIC INSPECTION. SINCE CHAPTER 5 MOVED THE

DEADLINE MUCH EARLIER, WE SHOULD ALIGN THE VOTER FRIENDLY BALLOT ACT

TIME PERIOD FOR SUCH PUBLIC INSPECTION CLOSER TO THE 55/54 DAY

DEADLINE, THAT WAY CANDIDATES, WATCHERS, PARTY LEADERS CAN EXAMINE THE

SAMPLE BALLOTS AND PROVIDE TIMELY INFORMATION TO THE COUNTY BOARDS

OF ELECTION OF ANY KIND OF TYPE, OR ANY TYPES OF TYPOS OR TRANSLATION

ISSUES THAT MAY BE PRESENT ON THE SAMPLE BALLOT. SUCH A PROCESS WOULD

NYS ASSEMBLY MARCH 11, 2019

HELP FACILITATE THE PRINTING OF BALLOTS, PROGRAMMING VOTING EQUIPMENT

AND COMPLETING PRE-ELECTION - YES, RICHARD, I AM ACTUALLY READING

SOMETHING - PRE-ELECTION LOGIC AND ACCURACY TESTING IN A TIMELY AND

EFFICIENT MANAGER [SIC].

UNFORTUNATELY, WE MISSED THIS POINT WHEN 2682 CAME

UP FOR A VOTE EARLIER THIS YEAR; HARD TO IMAGINE. BUT WE WOULD

MR. BUCHWALD TO EXPLAIN HIS VOTE.

MR. BUCHWALD: THANK YOU, MR. SPEAKER. THIS

IS A VERY FINE DAY. WE ARE FINALLY PASSING THROUGH BOTH HOUSES OF THE

LEGISLATURE THE VOTER FRIENDLY BALLOT ACT, A BILL WHICH SIMPLY STANDS

FOR THE PRINCIPLE THAT VOTERS SHOULD HAVE AS MUCH OPPORTUNITY AS

POSSIBLE TO READ AND UNDERSTAND THEIR BALLOT. THIS SHOULD NOT BE A

PARTISAN ISSUE. I'M PLEASED TO SEE BASED ON THE RESULTS SO FAR OF THIS

NYS ASSEMBLY MARCH 11, 2019

VOTE, IT IS NOT A PARTISAN ISSUE IN THIS HOUSE.

BUT, FRANKLY, IT'S BILLS LIKE THIS THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN

ENACTED A LONG TIME AGO. I'M VERY PLEASED THAT THIS BILL IS BEING SENT TO

THE GOVERNOR FOR HIS ACTION, BECAUSE I HEAR FROM FAR TOO MANY

CONSTITUENTS OF THEIR DIFFICULTY BECAUSE OF THE SMALL FONT SIZE OR

BECAUSE OF THE LAYOUT OF THE BALLOT, THINGS SHOULD BE AS SIMPLE AS

POSSIBLE WHEN IT COMES TO BASICALLY FOCUSING ON THE DECISION, THE

IMPORTANT DECISION THAT VOTERS HAVE. SO, I WANT TO CONGRATULATE THE

SPONSOR OF THIS BILL AND THE SPONSOR IN THE SENATE WHO USED TO SERVE IN

THIS HOUSE, BECAUSE THIS IS A TRULY GOOD DAY FOR THE VOTERS OF NEW

YORK. THANK YOU VERY MUCH, MR. SPEAKER. I VOTE AYE.
