New York Court-Ordered Anger Management Requirements

New York courts order anger management under various sections of the New York Penal Law. The most common charges requiring anger management include Assault in the Third Degree (PL ยง120.00), Menacing (PL ยง120.15), Harassment (PL ยง240.26), and Criminal Mischief (PL ยง145.00). Anger management is frequently ordered as part of an ACD (Adjournment in Contemplation of Dismissal), which allows the charges to be dismissed if the defendant completes specified requirements.

New York City has its own court system with specific procedures. In NYC Criminal Court, anger management is commonly ordered as part of plea deals, ACDs, and conditional discharges. New York does not have a statewide standard for the number of hours โ€” the duration is set by the judge, typically ranging from 8 to 26 hours.

For domestic violence cases in New York, courts may order a Batterer's Accountability Program (BAP) in addition to or instead of anger management. If your court order specifically requires a BAP or domestic violence intervention program, verify with your attorney whether general anger management satisfies that requirement.
