NEW INFORMATION IN REPLY PAPERS PROPERLY CONSIDERED BY THE COURT.

The Second Department, in finding plaintiff bank had established standing to bring the foreclosure action, explained when a court may consider new information in a reply affidavit (re: a motion for summary judgment):

… [I]t was not error for the Supreme Court to consider the reply affidavit, which was submitted in reply to the appellant’s opposition. A party moving for summary judgment generally cannot meet its prima facie burden by submitting evidence for the first time in reply … . However, there are exceptions to this general rule, including when the evidence is submitted in response to allegations raised for the first time in the opposition papers or when the other party is given an opportunity to respond to the reply papers… . Further, “[t]he function of reply papers is to address arguments made in opposition to the position taken by the movant” … .

Here, the Supreme Court properly considered the reply affidavit because the affidavit was offered in response to the appellant’s allegation in opposition to the motion that the plaintiff never had possession of the note, and merely clarified the plaintiff’s initial submissions as to its possession of the note at the time of commencement … . Central Mtge. Co. v Jahnsen, 2017 NY Slip Op 03474, 2nd Dept 5-3-17
