N.Y. Correction Law § 323: Sale of property

§ 323. Sale of property. The court in the judicial district in which a

person is sentenced to life imprisonment may empower, authorize and

direct a committee of such person to sell any of the real or personal

property of such person, and to do whatever may be deemed necessary in

the management of any of such person's property in the manner prescribed

for a committee of an incompetent. The court may from time to time, in

the manner prescribed upon the sale of the property of an infant, if it

deems it necessary, or that the estate will be benefited thereby, direct

the sale of any of the real or personal property by said committee, and

the investment of the proceeds of such sale. The court shall control

such committees in the performance of their duties; and may from time to

time modify and alter its direction or orders in any matter pertaining

to an estate.
