FAQ
Where are motions returnable? Motions are returnable to 851 Grand Concourse Bronx, New York 10451 in room 217.
A motion may be withdrawn at any time prior to its return date by filing with the clerk a written request signed by counsel for the moving party.
The return date is the court date. The party making the motion chooses the court date and puts it in the Notice of Motion so everyone knows when to come to court. NYSCEF wants to know the court date and has a calendar button to find the court date you picked.
Motions made by notice of motion and petitions and notices of petition in special proceedings are processed by the General Clerk's Office (Room 119) and are to be made returnable in the Motion Submission Part Courtroom (Room 130) on any business day of the week at AM.
Decisions. If the motion or OSC can't be settled, the Judge will make a decision. Sometimes, the Judge makes a decision right away. If not, the Judge has 60 days by law to decide the motion.
However, refusing a settlement offer does extend the life of your claim and delays when you receive compensation. If you have pressing medical bills or other expenses, this is a factor to consider. You'll also need to invest more time and energy into your case, including providing more documentation of your damages.
If you do not accept a settlement - at all - you go to court and have the case tried. Then a judgment is made and that is what you will have to settle for unless you appeal that result as well.
Extended Claims Process: Declining an offer can lengthen the resolution process, which may be challenging if immediate financial needs are pressing. Possible Legal Action: If negotiations don't yield a satisfactory offer, a lawsuit may become necessary, requiring additional time and resources.
At the outset of settlement negotiations, list all individuals and entities—both for the plaintiff and the defendant—that the agreement will cover. ✔ List all legal issues to be settled. List all claims your adversary may legally release via settlement. Verify the agreement covers these claims.
