Summary
The bill adds a new rule to New York’s General Business Law that makes the Bureau of Funeral Directing investigate any claims against funeral merchandise or service providers before the attorney general can start a special proceeding. After a 90‑day investigation, the bureau must send all records and copies of agreements to the attorney general, and it can also impose fines and sanctions on anyone falsely presenting themselves as a licensed funeral director or firm.
