you need to do like this guy in NC did only in NY it would take years to get it into court.
RALEIGH, N.C. (WNCN) – The Wake County sheriff must resume accepting and processing pistol purchase permits within seven days, according to a consent order signed by a judge.
Wake County Sheriff Gerald Baker temporarily suspended accepting new pistol purchasing permits on March 24 – two weeks after Gov. Roy Cooper declared a state of emergency in North Carolina and 11 days after President Donald Trump declared the COVID-19 pandemic a national emergency.
From March 10 to March 24, the sheriff’s office received applications in “unprecedented numbers” and caused more than 50 people to gather in the Wake County Public Safety Center, documents said.
That gathering of 50 or more was in violation of March 22 Proclamation of Emergency Restrictions put in place by the Wake County Board of Commissioners.
Baker said his office had 755 pending permits when he made the decision to put things on hold.
A couple of days after Baker suspended accepting permits, Travis Groo filed a lawsuit against Baker and the sheriff’s office.
On Tuesday, Superior Court Judge A. Graham Shirley signed off a consent order that states the sheriff’s office is ordered to resume accepting permits within seven days.
Baker must also modify the application process “so as to minimize or alleviate the admission of applicants for said permits to the Public Safety Center” throughout the declared states of emergency, documents said.

as expected, i got a standard response from county clerk

Unfortunately appointments for new pistol permits are handled by the Westchester County Public Safety police unit which is the number you have been calling.
I would suggest you keep calling and leave a message if no one answers. Someone I’m sure will get back to you.

We will begin to answer the appointment phone and accept message left for appointments when we reopen. I have been told that the New York State Court Officers will be reopen the Westchester County Court House to the public starting July 6 2020. Access to our office for the public is controlled by them. If that occurs on that date we will be reopening for appointments sometime after that.
