If the parties have a discovery dispute, they must consult with each other in a good faith effort to resolve the same (22 NYCRR 202.7[a]). In the event such an attempt is unsuccessful, then the parties are required to email the Part Clerk to request a discovery conference with the court. If, after a conference with the court, the dispute still cannot be resolved, then the party or parties seeking relief may file a discovery motion. While written leave of court is not required to file the motion, no motion may be filed unless the court has first conferenced the case. The affirmation of good faith must also indicate the identity of the individual who conferenced the case with the parties and the date on which the case was conferenced by the court.",,"[""discovery-disputes"", ""discovery-scheduling""]","[""22 NYCRR 202.7[a]"", ""22 NYCRR 202.7[c]""]",1,New York,supreme,part_rules NY-SC-1JD-CATANZARO-P37-006,70,NY-SC-1JD-CATANZARO,III.C,Discovery Motions - Prior Approval Required; Good Faith Affirmation Required,"The Court encourages parties to resolve discovery disputes without motion practice. A party seeking to make a discovery motion must first seek permission from the Court by submitting a letter to sfc-part37-clerk@nycourts.gov with all parties copied, stating the reason for the anticipated motion (not to exceed two [2] pages). Parties must also detail good faith efforts made in advance to resolve the dispute. Upon approval, the discovery motion must include: an affirmation of good faith; a copy of the letter seeking approval to file; and a copy of the court's letter permitting filing. The affirmation of good faith must include the time and dates the parties met and conferred in person, virtually, or had telephone conversations. Email attempts alone are insufficient. Discovery motions filed without showing good faith efforts will be denied.",,"[""discovery-disputes"", ""discovery-scheduling""]","[""22 NYCRR 202.7""]",1,New York,supreme,part_rules NY-SC-1JD-COHEN-P58-003,90,NY-SC-1JD-COHEN,2-I – Discovery Disputes,Discovery Dispute and Motion Procedure,"If the parties have a discovery dispute, they must consult with each other in a good faith effort to resolve the same (22 NYCRR 202.7[a]).
