BILL NUMBER:S4568 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the civil practice law and rules, in relation to actions commenced by immediate family members within the zone of danger for intentional or negligent infliction of emotional distress PURPOSE: To codify the cause of action for intentional and negligent infliction of emotional distress in the New York State civil practice law. SUMMARY: Section 1 Adds new subdivision nine to section 215 of the CPLR to codify the cause of action for intentional and negligent infliction of emotional distress. Section 2 sets the effective date as sixty days after it shall have become law. JUSTIFICATION: The common law torts of intentional and negligent infliction of emotional distress have long been held to fall under general negligence claims in New York State under section 215 of the CPLR pertaining to causes of actions to be commenced within one year. This bill will solidify these causes of action within New York State law and further define the scope of family members who may bring such an action, if within the zone of danger.
