THE UNDERLYING OFFENSE AND DEFENDANT’S LIMITED HISTORY OF ALCOHOL ABUSE DID NOT WARRANT A PROBATION CONDITION REQUIRING CONSENT TO SEARCHES FOR WEAPONS, DRUGS AND OTHER CONTRABAND (FIRST DEPT).

The First Department struck the probation condition requiring defendant’s consent to searches for weapons, drugs and other contraband:

The court improperly imposed, as a condition of defendant’s probation, a requirement that he consent to a search by his probation officer of his person, vehicle, or home for weapons, drugs, drug paraphernalia, and other contraband. Defendant was not armed with a weapon during the underlying offense and had no history of violence or use of weapons … . Defendant did not have a history of abusing illicit substances and was not assessed as being in need of drug abuse treatment … . Although defendant admitted to a limited history of alcohol abuse, before and at the time of the instant offense, the consent-search condition, as written, “is not limited to conform” to the “certain limited circumstances where alcohol becomes contraband for the purposes of” that condition … . People v Aquirre, 2026 NY Slip Op 00025, First Dept 1-6-25

Practice Point: The First Department struck a probation condition requiring consent to searches for weapons, drugs and other contraband, which was not justified by the underlying offense or defendant’s limited history of alcohol abuse.
