N.Y. Criminal Procedure Law § 20.10 (2026)

§ 20.10  Geographical jurisdiction of offenses; definitions of terms.
  The following definitions are applicable to this article:
  1.  "This state" means New York State as its boundaries are prescribed
in the state law, and the space over it.
  2.  "County" means any of the sixty-two counties of this state as its
boundaries are prescribed by law, and the space over it.
  3.  "Result of an offense."  When a specific consequence, such as the
death of the victim in a homicide case, is an element of an offense, the
occurrence of such consequence constitutes the "result" of such offense.
An offense of which a result is an element is a "result offense."
  4.  "Particular effect of an offense."  When conduct constituting an
offense produces consequences which, though not necessarily amounting to
a result or element of such offense, have a materially harmful impact
upon the governmental processes or community welfare of a particular
jurisdiction, or result in the defrauding of persons in such
jurisdiction, such conduct and offense have a "particular effect" upon
such jurisdiction.
