Which event starts the 22 NYCRR 202.48(a)-(c) requirement?
Retain the signed and filed decision and its express settlement or submission direction.
Confirm completion of both signing and filing. Do not use service of notice of entry as the automatic trigger.
Responsible actor. The party responsible for submitting the directed proposed order or judgment. An actual Rule 202.48 direction to settle or submit the proposed order, without a different court deadline.
22 NYCRR 202.48(a)-(c)How is the stated statutory period counted?
- Retain the signed and filed decision and its express settlement or submission direction.
- Confirm completion of both signing and filing. Do not use service of notice of entry as the automatic trigger.
- Exclude the established event day and count every intermediate calendar day under GCL 20.
- Submit the proposed order or judgment for signature, with service proof where notice is directed. Comply separately with the notice-of-settlement or counter-order intervals.
GCL 20 excludes the established event day. These five-, ten-, fifteen-, twenty-, twenty-one-, thirty-, sixty- and ninety-day periods count intermediate calendar days. GCL 30 uses the corresponding calendar-month day, or the final day of a shorter month. GCL 58 defines a year as twelve months. GCL 25-a permits the next succeeding business day when the statutory final day is closed and expressly includes periods before which an act is required. The actual hearing or entry time and any different court direction remain separate checks. The independent calendar follows GCL 24 and Election Law 8-100. It includes Lincoln’s Birthday, the second Sunday in June as Flag Day, Juneteenth and general election day. GCL 24 adds the following day for a listed Sunday holiday except Flag Day. It does not generally move a Saturday holiday to Friday. Dates after 2027 are projections of the reviewed standing statute through 2033, not proof of future court openings. Check amendments, additional appointed holidays and actual closures separately.
The scoped calculators accept independently established events in 2026 and 2027 and projected final dates through 2033. They require the particular disclosed branch, no unsupported service-method addition, no unmodeled toll, no different actual court order and no additional closure. Earlier editions, historical tolls and outside dates require separate review and receive no computed or paid date. This software boundary does not establish that an act is legally late.

Try these dates in the calculatorWhich facts change this requirement?
- Different court direction
- The sixty days apply unless the court directs otherwise.
- Abandonment
- Untimely submission is deemed abandonment unless good cause is shown.
- Settlement notice
- The rule uses separate personal-or-mail notice periods for proposed orders and counter-orders. These are not added automatically to sixty days.
