§ 15-13 Expedited Cases.

RCNY § 15-13

Upon receipt of notification that a complaint has been found to be substantiated by the CCRB accompanied by a recommendation that Charges and Specifications be preferred, the DAO shall inquire as to whether the nature of the substantiated allegation and the status of the subject officer requires expedited prosecution of the substantiated case. In such cases, or in similar cases where the need for such expedited prosecution arises while the prosecution is pending, the DAO shall advise CCRB's Chair and Executive Director of the need for expedited prosecution. CCRB shall make every reasonable effort to conclude the prosecution within the required time frame. If CCRB determines that it will not be able to conclude the prosecution within the required time frame, CCRB will decline to prosecute the case and request that the DAO undertake the prosecution of such case.
