NY-SC-1JD-TSAI-004 Part Rules — Hon. Richard Tsai, A.J.S.C. (Part 21) 53 NY-SC-1JD-TSAI 4 How Conferences Are Conducted Counsel appearing for a scheduled conference should check-in with the Part Clerk upon arrival in courtroom 280. For e-filed cases, the Part Clerk will provide the parties' counsel with a pre-printed discovery order bearing a bar code and case-specific information. The parties must then confer with each other to agree upon clear deadlines for discovery and what specific discovery remains outstanding. All parties must be present when the case is called for a court conference. In the event of a discovery dispute, the parties are highly encouraged to seek a ruling from the court at a discovery conference in lieu of making a formal motion. A scheduled discovery conference is canceled only if plaintiff files the note of issue at least two business days beforehand and emails adversary and Chambers, and no one replies with an objection. 3 ["conference-procedures", "discovery-disputes", "note-of-issue"] ["22 NYCRR 202.7"] 1 New York supreme part_rules
NY-SC-1JD-TSAI-005 Part Rules — Hon. Richard Tsai, A.J.S.C. (Part 21) 53 NY-SC-1JD-TSAI 5 Adjournment of Discovery Deadlines and Note of Issue Deadline Parties may consent to adjourn court-ordered discovery deadlines without court approval, as long as the discovery is completed prior to the next scheduled discovery conference. However, court approval is required where there has been two (2) prior instances of non-compliance with court-ordered discovery deadlines for the specific discovery at issue. If all discovery is complete but the deadline to file the note of issue has passed, the parties may submit a stipulation to extend the note of issue deadline to the chambers to be so-ordered. Such stipulations must clearly state, without any reservation, that all discovery is complete, and must provide a specific date when the note of issue must be filed (no later than 35 days from the date of the stipulation). 4 ["discovery-scheduling", "note-of-issue", "deadlines", "scheduling-orders"] [] 1 New York supreme part_rules
