NYCRR Regulatory History Tips

We had occasion recently to produce a handout of NYCRR regulatory history tips for some new court staff.

We hope others may find this digital version handy.

► Identify the chapter or section to be researched.

► Consult the latest NYCRR for the Historical Note of the regulation being researched. Copy the dates the regulation was added/amended and the effectivity date each time the regulation was affected by change.

► Go to the NYCRR Replaced Pages area (along the left wall of the library as one goes down the aisle towards Main Street) and identify which Title is being researched.

► Locate the date of the most recent change (according to the historical note) -

Example: Title 8, Education, §30-1.13 Rights incident to abolition of positions. Historical Note—Sec. added by renum. And amd. 30.13, filed: July 1, 2008 as emergency measure; Aug. 4, 2008 eff. Aug. 21, 2008.

► Make a note of the second to the last entry (i.e., the regulation in its current form).

► Go to the Title 8 area. Locate the volume covering August 2008.

► Each change made in the NYCRR is separated by tabs containing dates on which these pages were taken out from the main volume.

► Check the tabs dated after July 1, 2008 and the change you are looking for should be in the dates after it was issued.
