AN ACT to amend the civil service law, in relation to deferring eligible
  lists for persons called to active duty in military service

  THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section 1. Subdivision 1 of section 56 of the civil  service  law,  as
amended  by  chapter  411  of  the  laws  of 1993, is amended to read as
follows:
  1. The duration of an eligible list shall be fixed at  not  less  than
one nor more than four years; provided that, except for lists promulgat-
ed  for police officer positions in jurisdictions other than the city of
New York, in the event that a restriction against the filling of  vacan-
cies  exists  in any jurisdiction, the state civil service department or
municipal commission having jurisdiction shall, in the discretion of the
department or commission, extend the duration of any eligible list for a
period equal to the length of such restriction against  the  filling  of
vacancies;  AND PROVIDED FURTHER THAT, IN THE EVENT THAT AN APPLICANT OR
ELIGIBLE WHO IS ON AN ELIGIBLE LIST IS CALLED TO ACTIVE DUTY IN MILITARY
SERVICE, AS SUCH TERM IS DEFINED IN SUBDIVISION ONE OF SECTION 10-102 OF
THE ELECTION LAW, THE DURATION OF SUCH ELIGIBLE  LIST  WITH  RESPECT  TO
SUCH  APPLICANT  OR ELIGIBLE SHALL BE DEFERRED FOR A PERIOD EQUAL TO THE
LENGTH OF SUCH ACTIVE DUTY.  Restriction against the filling  of  vacan-
cies  shall  mean  any  policy, whether by executive order or otherwise,
which, because of a financial emergency, prevents or limits the  filling
of vacancies in a title for which a list has been promulgated. An eligi-
ble list that has been in existence for one year or more shall terminate
upon  the  establishment  of  an  appropriate new list, unless otherwise
prescribed by the state civil service department or municipal commission
having jurisdiction.
  S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
