In the Matter of Todd North, Appellant v. Board of Examiners of Sex Offenders of State of New York, Respondent

Summary

The Court affirmed the Board’s determination that Todd North must register under the Sex Offender Registration Act because his federal child‑pornography conviction satisfies the statute’s essential‑elements test, rejecting the argument that a strict equivalency standard applies or that the 2002 amendment’s effective‑date provision shields him.
