This Law Firm Publication by Jackson Lewis LLP discusses three new developments in New York law. The New York Non-Profit Revitalization Act of 2013 (effective July 1, 2014) limits non-profit corporation types to charitable and non-charitable, requires certain internal governance controls and revises financial reporting and audit procedures. The New York State Commercial Goods Transportation Industry Fair Play Act (effective March 11, 2014) limits use of independent contractors in the commercial goods transportation services industry. Finally, the Public Health Law now prohibits employees of hospitals or residential health care facilities from smoking near those facilities.
