In New York law, Article 20 refers to Parties to offenses and liability through accessorial conduct. If you have been charged with such an offense, you should contact a criminal defense attorney immediately.
The complete law is as follows:
20.00 Criminal liability for conduct of another. 20.05 Criminal liability for conduct of another; no defense. 20.10 Criminal liability for conduct of another; exemption. 20.15 Convictions for different degrees of offense. 20.20 Criminal liability of corporations.
