If you are the victim of a family (domestic) offense, you have the right to: 

  • Bring charges both in Criminal and Family Courts 
  • Request an Order of Protection (OOP), which may require that the offender stop threatening or harming you, or staying away from you entirely  
  • An OOP can be issued in both Criminal Court and Family Court  
  • A Criminal Court may issue an OOP to any victim and/or witness listed on the crime report once an arrest is made and the offender is arraigned before a Criminal Court judge.  
  • You may be eligible in Family Court if you currently are married or ever have been married to the offender, blood relatives, have a child in common, or are current or former intimate partners. 

There are two types of Orders of Protection (OOP): 

  • No Contact OOP: The offender is not to have any contact with the victim. 
  • No Offensive Contact OOP: The offender can have contact with the victim but cannot physically harm, or threaten to harm, the victim.   

Warrants:

To file for a warrant for a person’s arrest, bring your copy of the Crime Report to Room 270 (second floor) of the City Public Safety Building where you can see a police paralegal. Call (585) 428-6571 for general inquiries. 

District Attorney:

The District Attorney's Office (DA's) is the prosecuting attorney who represents the interests of the State and victim concerns throughout the criminal case.
Pre-Trial Release: A defendant is interviewed before and after arraignment to determine eligibility of non-financial release and to assess the defendants likelihood to return to court. 

Types of Offenses: 

Violations are the least serious of offenses; Felonies and Misdemeanors are the most serious crimes punishable according to the New York State Penal Law.
