SECTION 1101
Disclosure
Uniform Justice Court Act (UJC) CHAPTER 898, ARTICLE 11
§ 1101. Disclosure.

(a) CPLR applicable. The procedures set forth in the CPLR relative to
disclosure, bill of particulars and the procuring of a copy of the items
of an account, shall govern in this court, subject to paragraph (b).

(b) Parties and non-parties. All notices, orders, subpoenas and other
papers relating to disclosure may be served in any part of the county
and shall be served by such means as would be permissible in the supreme
court in a like instance.

(c) Protective order. The protective order provided for in CPLR §
3103 shall be available in this court with regard to all of the
foregoing, and shall not be limited to the disclosure devices provided
in article 31 of the CPLR.

(d) Extra-territorial disclosure. In any case where disclosure would
be available in the supreme court in a like case, but is unavailable in
this court by virtue of any territorial limitation upon its
jurisdiction, the court may, upon motion on notice to all adverse
parties, make an order to obtain disclosure from a source without the
municipality, county or state by the use of any device to which the
supreme court might resort to obtain disclosure from a source without
the state.
