    1    Section  1.  Subdivision 1 of section 530.60 of the criminal procedure
    2  law, as designated by chapter 788 of the laws of  1981,  is  amended  to
    3  read as follows:
    4    1. Whenever in the course of a criminal action or proceeding a defend-
    5  ant is at liberty as a result of an order of recognizance or bail issued
    6  pursuant to this [article] CHAPTER, and the court considers it necessary
    7  to  review  such  order,  it  may,  and by a bench warrant if necessary,
    8  require the defendant to appear before the court. Upon such  appearance,
    9  the court, for good cause shown, may revoke the order of recognizance or
   10  bail.  If  the defendant is entitled to recognizance or bail as a matter
   11  of right, the court must issue another such order. If he OR SHE is  not,
   12  the  court may either issue such an order or commit the defendant to the
   13  custody of the sheriff. WHERE THE DEFENDANT IS COMMITTED TO THE  CUSTODY
   14  OF  THE  SHERIFF  AND  IS  HELD  ON  A FELONY COMPLAINT, A NEW PERIOD AS
   15  PROVIDED IN SECTION 180.80 OF THIS CHAPTER SHALL COMMENCE  TO  RUN  FROM
   16  THE TIME OF THE DEFENDANT'S COMMITMENT UNDER THIS SUBDIVISION.
   17    S  2.  This  act shall take effect on the thirtieth day after it shall
   18  have become law.
