SECTION 75-A
Civil service proceeding; commencement upon alleged violation of certain provisions of the labor law relating to police officers
Civil Service (CVS) CHAPTER 7, ARTICLE 5, TITLE B
§ 75-a. Civil service proceeding; commencement upon alleged violation
of certain provisions of the labor law relating to police officers. 1.
Any police officer alleging a violation of section two hundred fifteen-a
of the labor law may institute a proceeding pursuant to the provisions
of his collective bargaining agreement. If no such agreement exists a
complaint may be filed by a police officer with the state or a municipal
civil service commission alleging a violation of section two hundred
fifteen-a of the labor law; as a condition of entertaining such
complaint the commission may require a police officer to exhaust all
remedies available to such employee pursuant to the provisions of a
collective bargaining agreement and the rules and regulations of the
employer. Upon the filing of such complaint or upon its own initiative
the commission having jurisdiction may investigate and upon finding an
improper transfer or other penalty in violation of such section, enforce
the provisions of such section. The commission may exercise any powers
heretofore granted to it by provision of this chapter or by any other
provision of law necessary for the enforcement of the provisions of
section two hundred fifteen-a of the labor law.

2. Nothing in this section shall be construed to abrogate, impair,
alter, or in any way modify any right of action in law that an employee,
alleged to have been penalized, may have.
