Sponsor's memo
Title of bill
An act to amend chapter 695 of the laws of 1994 amending the civil service law relating to injunctive relief in improper practice cases, in relation to extending the effectiveness of provisions contained therein
Purpose or general idea of bill
This bill intends to continue to provide for an expedited method to resolve improper labor practice issues.
Summary of specific provisions
This bill would extend the provisions relating to injunctive relief from June 30, 2009 to June 30, 2011.
Effects of present law which this bill would alter
This bill would extend the applicability of injunctive relief in public employment improper practice cases for two years.
Justification
Injunctive relief was enacted in 1994 to provide an expedited method to resolve improper practice cases in the public sector where there was deemed to be immediate and irreparable harm. Since it took effect in 1995, it has enabled labor and management to resolve numerous issues. It is, therefore, appropriate that this law be extended.
