NY A10663

Amends New York Executive Law Section 300 to establish jurisdiction over unlawful discriminatory practices that have a "sufficient nexus" with New York State, even without requiring an impact within the state

Defines sufficient nexus as occurring when: the aggrieved person is a New York resident during the discrimination, the conduct relates to employment located in New York, or the conduct occurred in whole or in part in New York

Specifies that employment is "located" in New York if it involves periodic physical presence in a New York office (even if infrequent), services performed regularly in New York, or a reporting relationship with someone who works in New York

Allows factfinders to determine sufficient nexus exists based on other facts and circumstances beyond the enumerated categories

Provides affirmative defenses for respondents who were not authorized to do business in New York, did not conduct business there, and were not state residents
