N.Y. Criminal Procedure Law § 410.30: Declaration of delinquency

§ 410.30 Declaration of delinquency.

If at any time during the period of a sentence of probation or of

conditional discharge the court has reasonable cause to believe that the

defendant has violated a condition of the sentence, it may declare the

defendant delinquent and file a written declaration of delinquency. When

the court receives a request for a declaration of delinquency by a

probation officer, it shall make a decision on such request within

seventy-two hours of its receipt of the request. Upon filing a written

declaration of delinquency, the court must promptly take reasonable and

appropriate action to cause the defendant to appear before it for the

purpose of enabling the court to make a final determination with respect

to the alleged delinquency in accordance with section 410.70 of this

article.
