Summary

The New York Court of Appeals affirmed the dismissal of two actions under the Public Employee Safety and Health Act, holding that the three‑year CPLR 214(2) limitations period applies and that the 30‑day filing requirement is not a statute of limitations and may be waived, but the actions were still barred by the three‑year period.
