Resumen

This Article of the Agriculture and Markets Law of New York concerns indemnification for rabies in the state of New York (except for the city of New York). It provides that the present losses to livestock in certain areas of the state resulting from the disease in animals known as rabies threaten to impair the agricultural economy of the communities affected. The purposes of the Article generally are to protect the public welfare. The Article further provides that each county shall be liable for damages resulting within the county to domestic animals from the disease known as rabies and indemnification therefor shall be made in the manner provided by this Article. The term "domestic animals" as used in this Article means domesticated sheep, horses, cattle, swine and goats. Such indemnification shall not exceed the actual damage and shall in no event exceed the sum of five hundred dollars for each animal in the case of damage to horses or cattle, or one hundred fifty dollars for each animal in the case of damage to swine, goats or sheep, provided, however, that in the case of registered purebred bovine animals indemnification may be made in an amount not to exceed seven hundred dollars for each animal. The Article further provides rules for damage appraisal and report; review by the commissioner of agriculture and markets of New York; review by court; payment to claimant by county; and partial reimbursement by the state.
