AI Summary

This bill amends the Executive Law and the Education Law to prohibit certain entities, including the state, political subdivisions, corporations, and educational institutions, from requiring individuals to provide a copy of their criminal history record that they obtained through the Division of Criminal Justice Services. This is intended to prevent discrimination against individuals based on their criminal history record and provides a rebuttable presumption in favor of excluding such records from evidence in certain negligence cases involving employers.
