        AN  ACT  to  amend  the  education law, in relation to excepting certain

          The  People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
        bly, do enact as follows:
 
     1    Section 1. Subdivision 8 of section 2573  of  the  education  law,  as
     2  amended  by chapter 915 of the laws of 1963 and as renumbered by chapter
     3  717 of the laws of 1970, is amended to read as follows:
     4    8. No charges under this section shall  be  brought  more  than  three
     5  years  after  the  occurrence  of the alleged incompetency or misconduct
     6  except where the charge is of misconduct which  resulted  in  conviction
     7  for a crime. This subdivision shall not apply to alleged misconduct that
     8  would  have  constituted a violation of articles one hundred thirty, two
     9  hundred sixty, or two hundred sixty-three of the penal law or misconduct
    10  that would have  made  any  district  named  under  section  twenty-five
    11  hundred  fifty of this article liable under the child victims act or the
    12  adult survivors act, in which case proof of a conviction  shall  not  be
    13  required for the purposes of bringing charges.
