The Constitution of the State of New York establishes the structure of the government of the State of New York, and enumerates the basic rights of the citizens of New York. Like most state constitutions in the United States, New York's constitution's provisions tend to be more detailed and amended more often than its federal counterpart. Because the history of the state constitution differs from the federal constitution, the New York Court of Appeals has seen fit to interpret analogous provisions differently from United States Supreme Court's interpretation of federal provisions.

dbo:abstract
  • The Constitution of the State of New York establishes the structure of the government of the State of New York, and enumerates the basic rights of the citizens of New York. Like most state constitutions in the United States, New York's constitution's provisions tend to be more detailed and amended more often than its federal counterpart. Because the history of the state constitution differs from the federal constitution, the New York Court of Appeals has seen fit to interpret analogous provisions differently from United States Supreme Court's interpretation of federal provisions. The State of New York has held nine Constitutional Conventions: in 1776–1777, 1801, 1821, 1846, 1867–1868, 1894, 1915, 1938, and 1967; a Constitutional Commission in 1872–1873; and a Judicial Convention in 1921. Despite this, the state has had only four essentially de novo constitutions in its history, those of 1777 (replacing the former colonial charter), 1821, 1846, and 1894. During the 20th century, the State held three constitutional conventions, the efforts of two of which were rejected by the New York State electorate. However, portions of the seventh Convention's proposals of 1915 were adopted separately later in 1925 and 1927. The eighth Constitutional Convention of 1938, unlike all other state constitutional conventions since 1801, did not actually propose an entirely new Constitution, but just substantially modified the 1894 Constitution, from the sixth Convention, which was (and is) still in force.

  • Конституция штата Нью-Йорк 1777 года стала первой конституцией штата. Она была принята в Кингстоне 4-м провинциальным конгрессом штата Нью-Йорк 20 апреля 1777 года. Она просуществовала около 20-ти лет, пережила несколько поправок и в итоге была заменена . Основными авторами конституции были Джон Джей, Роберт Ливингстон и Говернор Моррис. Работа над созданием конституции началась в 1776 году, когда в Уайт-Плейнс 10 июля собрался Конституционный конвент. В те дни британская армия захватила город Нью-Йорк, поэтому конвенту пришлось менять место и собираться нерегулярно. Работа продолжилась зимой, когда англичане стояли в Нью-Йорке, а армия Вашингтона размещалась в зимнем лагере в Морристауне. Последняя сессия собралась в Кингстоне 20 апреля 1777 года. На этой сессии конституция была официально принята (32-мя голосами за и 1-м голосом против), а конвент распущен. В связи с военной обстановкой конституция не прошла формальной ратификации. (ru)
