Bill Summary
AN ACT to amend the executive law, in relation to institution of court actions
AI Summary
This bill amends the New York Executive Law to allow individuals to file a lawsuit in court alleging a violation of the human rights law, even if the complaint was previously dismissed by the Division of Human Rights for administrative convenience. The bill provides a three-year period after such a dismissal for the individual to bring the lawsuit in court, rather than being limited by the statute of limitations that would have applied if the complaint had not been filed with the Division of Human Rights initially.
