Courts weigh animal cruelty for protection orders
New York courts must consider recent aggravated animal cruelty when deciding whether grounds exist for temporary extreme risk protection orders. The cruelty must meet the definition in Agriculture and Markets Law § 353-a. “Recent” means within six months before the petition was filed. Courts must also weigh the time since the acts and the person's age when they occurred, alongside existing factors. The law took effect immediately.
