New York City Council · Oct 26, 2026 · starts 0:52:02 · 40 sec

Brooks-Powers asks how many times DOP has filed motions to terminate probation early since the new administration and how that compares to prior administrations. Eusebio says DOP is returning to the practice but does not have exact numbers yet and will provide them.

Selvena N. Brooks-Powers

Is this something that you're aware of?

Sharon Goodwin

Yes, I am.

Sharon Goodwin

And I'm glad to say that probation is now looking at all of our cases that are eligible for us to do early discharges.

Sharon Goodwin

I know it was a cease in practice, but I can report that it's back.

Selvena N. Brooks-Powers

Thank you.

Selvena N. Brooks-Powers

And since the start of this administration, how many times has the department filed a motion to terminate someone's probation early?

Selvena N. Brooks-Powers

And do you know how that number compares to previous administrations?
