Relates to the probable usefulness of judgments, compromised claims or settled claims resulting from certain child sexual abuse cases
This bill extends the payment period for settlements related to child sexual abuse cases against school districts. It modifies the local finance law to allow up to 30 years for school districts, BOCES, or special act school districts to pay judgments, compromised claims, or settled claims from cases under CPLR §214-g. The key change removes a previous time limit, ensuring these payments can be made over a longer timeframe. This directly affects school districts responsible for settling such cases, as it alters how and when they must fulfill financial obligations. The bill does not change the statute of limitations for filing claims.
