Sale and use of employment information. (a) No consumer 5 reporting agency or any subsidiary thereof shall sell or resell, or 6 offer for sale or resale or distribute employment information to any 7 principal creditor, as that term is defined in subdivision three of 8 section six hundred of this chapter, or other debt collector without 9 verifying that such sale, resale, or distribution was disclosed to the 10 consumer to whom such employment information pertains in a separate 11 stand-alone document, and that written consent from such consumer was 12 obtained. Employment information shall include, but not be limited to, 13 payroll and earnings information, hours worked, consumer history and 14 health insurance information. 15 (b) Such disclosure and consumer consent shall be given in a separate, 16 stand-alone document and consent shall be limited to the particular use 17 or transaction for which consent is given. 18 (c) Wherever there shall be a violation of this section, an applica- 19 tion may be made by the attorney general in the name of the people of 20 the state of New York to a court or justice having jurisdiction by a EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [] is old law to be omitted. LBD02680-01-9A. 431 2 1 special proceeding to issue an injunction, and upon notice to the 2 defendant of not less than five days, to enjoin or restrain the contin- 3 uance of such violation; and if it shall appear to the satisfaction of 4 the court or justice that the defendant has, in fact, violated this 5 section, an injunction may be issued by such court or justice, enjoining 6 and restraining any further violation, without requiring proof that any 7 person has, in fact, been injured or damaged thereby. In any such 8 proceeding, the court may make allowances to the attorney general as 9 provided in paragraph six of subdivision (a) of section eighty-three 10 hundred three of the civil practice law and rules, and direct restitu- 11 tion. Whenever the court shall determine that a violation of this 12 section has occurred, the court may impose a civil penalty of not more 13 than two thousand dollars for each violation. In connection with any 14 such proposed application, the attorney general is authorized to take 15 proof and make a determination of the relevant facts and to issue 16 subpoenas in accordance with the civil practice law and rules. 17 (d) In addition to any right of action granted to the attorney general 18 pursuant to this section, any person who has been injured by reason of 19 any violation of this section may bring an action in his or her own name 20 to enjoin such unlawful act or practice, an action to recover his or her 21 compensatory damages and one thousand dollars, or both such actions. The 22 court may, in its discretion, award the prevailing plaintiff in such 23 action an additional award not to exceed five thousand dollars, if the 24 court finds the defendant willfully violated the provisions of this 25 section. The court may award reasonable attorneys' fees to a prevailing 26 plaintiff. 27 (e) Nothing in this section shall in any way limit the rights, reme- 28 dies or privileges that are otherwise available to a consumer at law or 29 equity. 30 § 2. This act shall take effect on the one hundred eightieth day after 31 it shall have become a law.
