1. Upon the arraignment of a defendant whose court attendance has been
secured by the issuance and service of a summons, based upon an
indictment, a prosecutor's information or upon an information, felony
complaint or misdemeanor complaint filed by a complainant who is a
police officer, the court must, if an offense charged in the accusatory
instrument is one specified in subdivision one of section 160.10, direct
that the defendant be fingerprinted by the appropriate police officer or
agency, and that he or she appear at an appropriate designated time and
place for such purpose.
2. Upon the arraignment of a defendant whose court attendance has been
secured by the issuance and service of a summons based upon an
information or misdemeanor complaint filed by a complainant who is not a
police officer, and who has not previously been fingerprinted, the court
may, if it finds reasonable cause to believe that the defendant has
committed an offense specified in subdivision one of section 160.10,
direct that the defendant be fingerprinted by the appropriate police
officer or agency and that he appear at an appropriate designated time
and place for such purpose. A defendant whose court appearance has been
secured by the issuance and service of a criminal summons based upon a
misdemeanor complaint or information filed by a complainant who is not a
police officer, must be directed by the court, upon conviction of the
defendant, to be fingerprinted by the appropriate police officer or
agency and the court must also direct that the defendant appear at an
appropriate designated time and place for such purpose, if the defendant
is convicted of any offense specified in subdivision one of section
160.10.
