N.Y. Military Law Section 305
Relief against fines and penalties, et cetera

When an action for compliance with the terms of any contract is stayed pursuant to this act no fine or penalty shall accrue by reason of failure to comply with the terms of such contract during the period of such stay, and in any case where a person fails to perform any obligation and a fine or penalty for such non-performance is incurred a court may, on such terms as may be just, relieve against the enforcement of such fine or penalty if it shall appear that the person who would suffer by such fine or penalty was in the military service when the penalty was incurred, and that by reason of such service the ability of such person to pay or perform was thereby materially impaired.
