Since 2002, counties and New York City have been required to file a report every spring showing how much was spent on indigent legal services the previous year pursuant to County Law § 722-f (2). This report collects vital information on the amounts counties are spending on indigent legal services.

Beginning in 2017, following passage of Chapter 337 of the Laws of 2016, this report is to be filed with the Office of Indigent Legal Services instead of the Office of the State Comptroller as had previously been the case.

Blank copies of the reporting form can be found here in Word format and here in PDF format. The information it requests is the same as in previous years.

We are requesting reports be submitted to us no later than April 1, 2019. Counties and New York City should either submit it by email to [email protected] or in hard copy to:

Office of Indigent Legal Services
80 South Swan St., Suite 1147
Albany, NY, 12210

The report does not need to be submitted to the Office of State Comptroller.
