NY A09186

Adds new section 4552 to the civil practice law and rules establishing restrictions on evidence of a victim's sexual conduct, sexual predisposition, or manner of dress in civil proceedings

Defines "sexual conduct" to include sexual activities, previous or subsequent sexual experiences, contraceptive use, living arrangements, lifestyle, sexual predisposition, and manner of dress

Creates a presumption that evidence of a victim's sexual conduct is inadmissible and not subject to discovery, requiring defendants to apply for a court order and demonstrate that probative value substantially outweighs potential harm, shame, or embarrassment to the victim

Permits evidence of prior sexual conduct only when material to proving that semen, pregnancy, or disease originated from someone other than the defendant

Requires that all motions, related materials, and hearing records regarding such evidence remain sealed unless the court orders otherwise
