NYS Court Officers

[courtcop64]

greetings to all fellow court officers, I'm currently upstate with 8 years on. Just wondering if any other officers, past/present/future are on this board. Take care all & be safe!!!!!

Anyone from upstate that took the medical last week get called for the Academy yet?? Just wondering, I took it and and am hoping to get called..

Clean out your locker day after graduation and go home, report to your command next work day.
Thats how it was upstate , maybe its different in city

[OneMoreRound]

Can anyone advise the turnaround from graduating the academy to reporting to your command?

[Holcroft]

Would depend on what steps you completed and your rank. If all you have to do is medical its possible you could make it in.
Nm I just looked and class starts on april 4th so I would have to say its too late.

If someone was considering changing location to upstate it would be too late to do so right , since the academy is expect to start in April ?

They are expecting a upstate academy in early April. Received a call for medical last week.

Courts upstate vary from small quiet places to very busy. You could be in a court with only a couple other officers running around all day breaking up fights without a lot of backup like in the city.

So in all honesty, how boring is this job if placed upstate?

For academy, are you allowed to go home on weekends? Do you stay at Croton facility or a local hotel?

Are you paid starting right in beginning of the academy or does it take a while?

Thanks for any insight!

Does anyone know if the duty belts are supposed to be plain or basket weave? Any recc places for uniforms in the bronx?

You're allowed to appeal

[Holcroft]

Theres always a chance, would depend what dq was based on.

[DLW]

Has anyone been dq'd and had any success in the appeal process ? I have an attorney but I dont want to spend the money if appeal chances are slim
Thank you

Congrats to everyone entering the academy.... its a long journey but i promise it is worth it. Just pay attention, keep your mouth shut and stay in shape. This is a great opportunity so dont waste it.
