Part Assignment: Two Sources Disagree
Two nycourts.gov sources name this Part differently, and our office is printing both rather than choosing between them. The justice’s own published Part Rules give the Part as Matrimonial Part 3 (MP3). The Richmond County judges list prints him at IAS 3. Both sources point to Courtroom 440 at 26 Central Avenue.
The justice’s own Part Rules control. They are the Part’s own statement of how it operates, and a county-wide directory listing is not. Counsel who need the Part designation for a caption, a stipulation, or a NYSCEF filing should confirm it with the Part before filing.
All Motions Require an Appearance and Oral Argument
The Part Rules state that “all motions require appearances and oral argument unless appearances are waived by the Court.” There is no submission track by default. The attorney who appears on a motion in this Part has to argue it, and the only exception is a waiver that the Court itself grants.
Motion Conferences: First Call and Second Call
Motion conferences are held Thursdays, in person, with a first call at 9:30 a.m. and a second call at 10:30 a.m.
Appearance Format Depends on the Appearance Type
The published rules set in-person motion conferences. The dated field note below records a status conference in this Part that the court set to be held virtually by Microsoft Teams. The format therefore depends on the type of appearance, and one does not tell you the other. Counsel should confirm with the Part which format applies to the specific appearance before sending anyone to Staten Island or logging in.
Adjournments Require Consent and Prior Court Approval
An adjournment requires the consent of all parties and prior Court approval. The request is made by email to the justice’s secretary, with all parties copied. Consent among counsel, standing alone, does not adjourn the appearance.
Part Rules change. Verify the current rules with the Part before any appearance.
Before You Send a Covering Attorney
Confirm the format before anyone travels. This Part mixes formats. Motion conferences are in person on Thursdays, first call at 9:30 a.m. and second call at 10:30 a.m., and the field note below records a status conference set to be held virtually by Microsoft Teams. A covering attorney sent to Courtroom 440 for an appearance the court is holding on Teams has missed it, and so has one waiting on a Teams link for an appearance the court is holding in the courtroom. Ask the Part which applies.
The adjournment rule needs two things, not one. An adjournment requires the consent of all parties and prior Court approval, requested by email to the justice’s secretary with all parties copied. A covering attorney who arrives holding everyone’s consent and no approval from the Court is still on for the appearance.
Whoever appears has to argue. The Part Rules require appearances and oral argument on all motions unless the Court waives the appearance, so the covering attorney needs a full brief from the referring firm before the date.
Practitioner Intelligence
Observations from attorneys who have appeared in this Part, checked against the published Part Rules. Nothing in this section is a rule of the Part. Last verified: September 11, 2026.
What to Expect
The motion calendar is called in person on Thursdays, with a first call at 9:30 a.m. and a second call at 10:30 a.m. Because the Part Rules require oral argument on all motions unless the Court waives the appearance, the appearance is argument rather than a calendar formality.
Tips
- Ask the Part which format applies. Motion conferences are in person and at least one status conference in this Part was set to be held virtually by Microsoft Teams. The appearance type drives the format, so confirm it rather than assuming.
- Plan for the second call. The Part publishes a first call at 9:30 a.m. and a second call at 10:30 a.m., so a covering attorney should be prepared to be in Courtroom 440 across that window.
- Get consent and approval, in that order, by email. An adjournment needs the consent of all parties and the Court’s prior approval, emailed to the justice’s secretary with all parties copied. Settle both before the appearance date.
- Send someone who can argue. Appearances and oral argument are required on all motions unless the Court waives the appearance, so a full brief from the referring firm is the difference between an argument and a request to adjourn.
- Confirm the Part designation before you file. The justice’s own rules say Matrimonial Part 3 and the county judges list says IAS 3. Where a caption, a stipulation, or a NYSCEF filing has to name the Part, confirm it with the Part first.
Field Note from September 10, 2026
Our office covered oral argument on a motion to amend in this Part (McCallum v. Richmond County Ambulance). The motion was marked decision reserved rather than decided from the bench. The court set the next status conference for November 23, 2026 at 11:20 a.m., to be held virtually by Microsoft Teams.
That is an account of what happened in the Part on that date. It is not a rule, and it does not predict how another motion or another conference will be handled.
