Certain nonjudicial officers and employees of the unified court system will receive salary increases and other benefits as part of a bill Gov. Andrew Cuomo signed into law Monday evening.

The bill (A.8101/S.6494), sponsored by Assemblywoman Helene Weinstein (D-Brooklyn) and state Sen. Martin Golden (R-Brooklyn), implements collective bargaining agreements between the state and public employee unions negotiating on behalf of court employees in the bargaining units for Suffolk County; New York City administrative, librarian, clerical and support employees; New York City administrative services employees; the Ninth Judicial District; citywide law assistants; New York City senior court attorneys; and New York City court reporters.

The law, introduced at the request of the judiciary, provides salary increases retroactively from April 1, 2016, until March 31, 2019. Dating back to April 1, 2016, eligible employees covered under the new law will receive a 2 percent raise, and again on April 1, 2017, and April 1, 2018.
