The MMTRP is a specialized part focused on getting medical malpractice cases trial-ready. Cases assigned to the MMTRP are expected to be moving toward resolution or trial. Come prepared to discuss the substantive status of your case, not just discovery.
Motion Practice
All motions must be e-filed through NYSCEF. Courtesy copies of motion papers should not be delivered to chambers unless the court explicitly directs otherwise. Motions are heard on the regular calendar.
Practitioner Intelligence

What to Expect
Judge Spodek handles a diverse caseload including the Medical Malpractice Trial Readiness Part. If your case is in the MMTRP, understand that this is not a standard conference part. The goal is to move cases toward resolution. Come prepared to discuss settlement, any remaining discovery, and your realistic timeline for trial readiness.
Tips
- MMTRP is serious. If your case is in the Medical Malpractice Trial Readiness Part, the court expects meaningful progress at every conference. Do not show up without settlement authority or a concrete plan for completing discovery.
- Know where your case stands. For Part 63 IAS matters, standard Kings County procedures apply. Have your discovery status organized and be prepared to discuss deadlines.
- 76J matters require preparation. CPLR 76J judicial hearing officer matters have their own procedures. Confirm requirements with the Part Clerk before appearing.
- Medical malpractice expertise helps. If your case is in the MMTRP and you are sending per diem coverage, make sure the covering attorney understands the medical issues, not just the procedural posture.
