§ 460.40 Enterprise corruption; jurisdiction.
  A person may be prosecuted for enterprise corruption:
  1.  in any county in which the principal place of business, if any, of
the enterprise was located at the time  of  the  offense,  and,  if  the
enterprise  had  a  principal place or business located in more than one
county,  then  in  any  such  county  in  which  any  conduct   occurred
constituting or requisite to the completion of the offense of enterprise
corruption; or
  2.  in any county in which any act included in the pattern of criminal
activity could have been prosecuted pursuant to article  twenty  of  the
criminal  procedure  law; provided, however, that such person may not be
prosecuted for enterprise  corruption  in  such  county  based  on  this
subdivision  if  the  jurisdiction  of  such  county  is based solely on
section 20.60 of the criminal procedure law; or
  3. in any county in which he:

(a) conducts or participates in the affairs of the enterprise in violation of subdivision one of section 460.20 of this article,

(b) acquires or maintains an interest in or control of the enterprise in violation of subdivision one of section 460.20 of this article,

(c) invests proceeds in an enterprise in violation of subdivision one of section 460.20 of this article; or 4. in any county in which the conduct of the actor had or was likely to have a particular effect upon such county or a political subdivision or part thereof, and was performed with intent that it would, or with knowledge that it was likely to, have such particular effect therein.
