  • Section 140.20 of the criminal procedure law

    9. For purposes of this section, "without unnecessary delay" shall mean promptly, and in any event before twenty-four hours or less have expired, commencing at the time of the person being taken into custody by such police officer, or any person acting on behalf of a police offi- cer, even when no arrest number has been issued. The failure or inabili- ty of any government agency to fulfill the requirements of this section, shall require the immediate release from custody of any person so held. (f) Persons detained for longer than twenty-four hours. For purposes of this article, when a writ of habeas corpus is heard challenging the pre-arraignment detention of a person detained for more than twenty-four hours, there shall be an evidentiary presumption that such detention, without arraignment, was avoidable, unnecessary and unlawful as defined in section 140.20 of the criminal procedure law, until and unless such presumption is rebutted by clear and convincing evidence of compelling facts and circumstance demonstrating that such delay was unavoidable and actually necessary for each individual petitioner identified in the writ. italics
