Re: Bombardier v. Menard
Index No: 2023-00023095 RJI No: 15-1-2023-0032
Mr. Meyer,
The Court has received your request to adjourn the return date of the motions before the
Court, based upon the Defendant's request for oral argument on the motions, and that you are on
vacation. It is unclear from your letter if you, or someone from your office, first reached out to
counsel for the defendant to see if he consents to such request, which this Court expects will occur
before any request to adjourn a date is made to the Court. If that has not happened, it must first
occur.
If you are unable to secure the Defendant’s consent, then the Court is certainly willing to
entertain a request to adjourn the motion return dates for good cause shown, provided that the
defendant is given an opportunity to be heard concerning the request. The Court notes that prior
to uploading the letter request to adjourn the motion return dates, a Court notice was uploaded to
NYSCEF by my law clerk indicating that oral argument is not being scheduled, and that the
motions will be considered as scheduled, on February 23, 2023, on submission only. Accordingly,
to the extent the need for the adjournment is to address the request for oral argument, that issue
has already been resolved.
If you are nevertheless seeking an adjournment for good cause, then please reach out to
Defendant’s counsel and if no consent is granted, write the Court clarifying your reasons/need for
the request and any good cause that exists.
Sincerely,
