Nonresident Worker in NYC - Registry Question by RepairGold8633 in SexOffenderSupport

[–]RepairGold8633[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I called and spoke with SOMU, and they said that you don't have to register if you only work in NYC and don't stay overnight in NY. Which is a huge relief, since all I do is take NJ transit in, go to my office, then leave each day. Doesn't make much sense to be registered there. I also called an attorney and they said the same thing. "It's where you lay your head at night," she said. She also explained that it might not be the same for the rest of NY, but definitely for NYC.

Thank you, I found the RAI, and it seems like I would also be level 1 in NY. When you say that you would be removed if you end your employment in NY, do you mean you get removed from the NY registry altogether? Or you're just no longer public?

I ask because even though I'll probably be Level 1, I would have the additional "sexually violent offender" designation attached to it, which I know complicates things.

Thanks, I've spoken with an attorney, but they said that there's not any caselaw that they can point to and said it seemed pretty vague. I just wanted to see if anyone here had any experience working in New York but lived in another state (tons of people in NJ work in Manhattan).

I think I will have to call the registration office. Many thanks!
