The sponsor's argument

Why Zellnor Myrie says this is needed

New York City Marshals are primarily responsible for executing judgments rendered by the Civil Court of the City of New York, serving summonses and executing other judgment orders. The City Marshals are supervised by the New York City Department of Investigation and pay a percentage of their gross income to the City. They are required to provide for their own operating expenses, including maintenance of their office, clerical staff, and transportation. In 1997,1999, 2004, 2014, 2019, 2020, 2022, 2023 and again in 2024, legislation was passed to allow New York City Marshals to enforce money judgments rendered by the Supreme and Family Courts in New York City. There remains a tremendous need, especially with respect to child support judgments, for increased enforcement of money judgments in the City. Utilizing the services of New York City Marshals for such enforce- ment has allowed the Marshals to lend their efforts to fulfilling this need. This program has worked exceptionally well since its inception and should be continued.

This is the sponsor's own case for the bill, quoted from their memorandum. It is not Agora's description of what the bill does.
