It amends New York's penal law to explicitly exclude sex offense cases from the list of situations where intermittent imprisonment (serving time on weekends or specific days instead of continuously) may be used. The change directly affects judges sentencing individuals convicted of sex offenses under Article 130, removing intermittent imprisonment as a sentencing option for these cases. The law takes effect November 1st following enactment.
