N.Y. Jud. Law § 793 — Return of warrant is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.
§ 793. Return of warrant. The sheriff must return the warrant, with his proceeding thereupon, at the term of the court; or, where the fine was imposed, in any county except New York, by the supreme court, or the county court at the term of the county court; held next after the expiration of sixty days from the receipt thereof. If he fails to do so, the district attorney must take the same proceedings to compel a return, as may be taken by a judgment creditor, where a sheriff omits to return an execution, issued out of the supreme court.
