N.Y. Civil Practice Law & Rules § 3214: Motions heard by judge supervising disclosure; stay of disclosure

Rule. 3214. Motions heard by judge supervising disclosure; stay of

disclosure. (a) Judge supervising disclosure. Unless the chief

administrator of the courts has, by rule, provided otherwise, if a case

has been assigned to a judge to supervise disclosure pursuant to section

3104, all motions preliminary to trial shall be referred to such judge

whenever practicable.

(b) Stay of disclosure. Service of a notice of motion under rule 3211,

3212, or section 3213 stays disclosure until determination of the motion

unless the court orders otherwise. If the motion is based solely on the

defense that the summons and complaint, summons with notice, or notice

of petition and petition was not properly served, disclosure shall not

be stayed unless the court orders otherwise.
