Court May Impliedly Vacate Note of Issue by Directing Discovery

Although the trial court did not impliedly vacate the note of issue in this case, the Third Department explained the criteria for such a vacation:

A court may be deemed to have vacated a note of issue sua sponte, even without explicitly stating so, if the court’s directives with respect to discovery “clearly evince its intent to do so and have the same practical effect”… . McDowell & Walder Inc v Micha…, 516375, 3rd Dept 1-23-14
