ORDERED that on or before July 31, 2024, the appellant shall serve copies of the appellant's brief, the respondent's brief, the reply brief, and this decision and order on motion upon the Attorney General, by one of the methods specified in CPLR 2103(b)(1), (3), (6), or (7), and shall file proof of service through the digital portal on this Court's website; and it is further,

ORDERED that on or before August 30, 2024, the Attorney General shall either (1) notify this Court, in writing, filed via email at [email protected], that the Attorney General declines to intervene on this appeal, or (2) serve a brief in support of the constitutionality of Penal Law § 265.03(3), and upload a digital copy of the brief, with proof of service thereof, through the digital portal on this Court's website; and it is further,

ORDERED that in the event the Attorney General elects to file a brief, the appellant and the respondent may serve a brief in response and upload a digital copy of the brief, with proof of service thereof, through the digital portal on this Court's website, within two weeks after service upon them of the Attorney General's brief, if so advised.
