New York A03271 amends the education law to modify the New York state district attorney and indigent legal services attorney loan forgiveness program. It allows absences due to uniformed service, maternity/paternity leave, FMLA, or compensable injury to be considered creditable time toward the required service period. This change is at the discretion of the president. The bill also specifies that periods of leave without pay or non-pay status do not count toward the completion of the required service period, but the service completion date is extended by the total time spent in non-pay status.
