Kings County CCP.
What Every Law Firm Needs to Know.
The Kings County Compliance Conference Part runs a single calendar call in Courtroom 282, at 11:00 AM on Tuesdays and Wednesdays and 11:30 AM on Thursdays, with no adjournments absent good cause and real consequences for non-appearance. This guide covers how the CCP works, the consent order deadline, what to bring, the most common mistakes, and how to handle coverage when conflicts arise.

It is 11:05 AM on a Wednesday. Your associate's phone is ringing. The partner, not the client, which is somehow worse. They were stuck in traffic on the BQE. The Kings County CCP calendar call was at 11:00. They missed it, nobody submitted a consent order two days earlier, and no other party answered either. The court can mark the action Administratively Dismissed or Marked Off on default. A conference that should have taken twenty minutes is now weeks of motion practice.
It is a preventable mistake. But it happens constantly to firms that are unfamiliar with how the Kings County Compliance Conference Part actually works.
Key Takeaways
- The Kings County Compliance Conference Part (CCP) is a mandatory discovery-monitoring stage in Kings County Supreme Court, Brooklyn. It reviews discovery status and sets the Note of Issue deadline that places a case on the trial calendar.
- There is a single calendar call in Courtroom 282 at 360 Adams Street, held at 11:00 AM on Tuesdays and Wednesdays and at 11:30 AM on Thursdays. It is called once, so firms that miss it do not get a second chance that day. Courtroom 282 opens at 9:30 AM.
- You can avoid the appearance entirely by submitting an order with the consent of all parties by 3:00 PM two days before the conference. That deadline is the single most useful thing on this page.
- If no consent order is submitted and no party appears, the court may mark the action Administratively Dismissed or Marked Off on default. If one party appears and another does not, the court may enter an order against the absent party on default.
- Adjournments are not granted as a matter of course. The rules state that discovery conferences will not be adjourned absent good cause shown, so coverage must be arranged before the conference date, not at the last minute.
- Come prepared with full discovery status, a proposed Note of Issue date, any consent compliance order, and the individual judge's Part Rules, which can override the general procedure.
- When a conflict makes appearing yourself impossible, a per diem attorney who knows the CCP room can cover the conference, negotiate the discovery schedule on consent, and report back the same day.
What Is the Kings County CCP?
The Compliance Conference Part, commonly called the CCP, is a mandatory stage of civil litigation in Kings County Supreme Court (Brooklyn, New York). It is the court's mechanism for monitoring whether the parties are moving discovery forward on schedule.
At a CCP appearance, the court reviews the status of discovery, sets or confirms a deadline for filing the Note of Issue, and resolves any outstanding discovery disputes between the parties. It is not a substantive hearing, but it is far from a rubber stamp.
Where Does the CCP Fit in the Litigation Timeline?
The compliance conference comes after the preliminary conference and before the pre-trial conference. Here is where it sits:
Preliminary Conference
Establishes the initial discovery schedule
Compliance Conference (CCP)
Checks that discovery is on track and sets a Note of Issue deadline
Final Conference Part (NI-FCP)
Serves as the gatekeeper to the trial calendar, ensuring all discovery is completed
Pre-Trial Conference
Prepares the case for trial
The Note of Issue deadline set at the CCP is critical. Filing the Note of Issue is what places the case on the trial calendar. Missing the CCP, or being unprepared at it, can delay that deadline and push your trial date back significantly.
How the CCP Calendar Works
Understanding the mechanics of the CCP calendar is the difference between a smooth appearance and an administrative disaster.
Where the Part Sits and What Time It Is Called
The Kings County discovery parts other than the CCP-OA Part sit in Courtroom 282 at 360 Adams Street. Courtroom 282 opens at 9:30 AM. Under the Discovery Part Rules updated April 13, 2026, there is a single calendar call for each of those parts, held at 11:00 AM on Tuesdays and Wednesdays and at 11:30 AM on Thursdays. There is no second call and there is no grace period, so read the day of the week on your court notice before you plan the morning.
The CCP-OA Part is the exception. It is called at 10:30 AM on Thursdays in Courtroom 362, a change that took effect on Thursday, April 16, 2026. Confirm which part your notice actually names, because the room and the call time both change.
One Call, No Second Chances
Nobody appears and no consent order was submitted: the court may mark the action Administratively Dismissed or Marked Off on default.
One party appears and another does not: the court may enter an order against the absent party on default, deny that party's motion if that party is the movant, or impose another appropriate sanction.
The resulting motion practice will cost your client far more than the appearance itself would have. Plan your coverage before the date, not the morning of.
The Consent Order Process
If all parties are aligned on a revised discovery schedule and Note of Issue deadline, you can resolve the CCP on consent and skip the appearance. The rule gives you one of two choices: submit an order with the consent of all parties by 3:00 PM two days before the conference, or appear in person at the conference. There is no option to hand up a consent order at the calendar call instead of appearing.
- All parties agree on a proposed compliance schedule well before the conference date, because the submission deadline falls two days ahead of it.
- Complete the compliance conference order form, which is available on the court's website.
- Insert dates certain rather than intervals. A proposed order that says "on or before September 30, 2026" is accepted; one that says "within 45 days" is rejected.
- On an e-filed case, upload the proposed order or stipulation to NYSCEF only. Do not email the part to report that you have uploaded it.
- Submit by 3:00 PM two days before the conference. If the court accepts the order, the conference is resolved without an appearance.
A submitted consent order is a proposal, not a disposition. The Discovery Part Rules state that consent orders are not effective, and cannot be copied, until a court attorney has reviewed them and the Judge or JHO has signed them. The order that controls is the one filed on NYSCEF, and its terms can differ from what the parties proposed. Do not calendar a deadline off the proposed version.
You also do not need to appear at a compliance conference if a Note of Issue has been served and filed before the conference date.
What to Bring and Know Before You Appear
Walking into a CCP appearance without preparation is a fast path to court-imposed deadlines you did not choose. Come ready with the following:
CCP Appearance Checklist
- Full discovery status -- Know exactly what has been exchanged, what is outstanding, and why.
- Proposed Note of Issue date -- The court will ask. Know the date.
- Consent compliance order (if applicable) -- Resolves the conference on consent and saves court time.
- Stipulation forms -- In case of last-minute resolution or disputes at the door.
- Judge's Part Rules -- Individual judges may have specific CCP procedures that override the general rules. Check before you go.
- Substantive case knowledge -- The court may address outstanding disputes directly. Whoever appears needs to know the file.
The Discovery Part Rules publish direct contacts for each part. The Compliance Conference Part can be reached at 347-296-1626 or KSCCVCCP@nycourts.gov. The Preliminary Conference and Intake Part is 347-296-1592 or KSCCVIntake@nycourts.gov, the Note of Issue Final Conference Part is 347-401-9054 or KSCCVNIFC@nycourts.gov, and the City and Transit Authority Discovery Part is 347-401-9264 or KSCCVCDCP@nycourts.gov. Do not use these addresses to tell the court that you have uploaded an order or a stipulation to NYSCEF; the rules ask you not to.
The Five Most Common CCP Mistakes
After more than 28 years of covering CCP appearances across Kings County, the same mistakes come up again and again. Here are the five most costly:
Missing the Consent Order Deadline by Assuming You Can Hand It Up
The rule requires a consent order to be submitted by 3:00 PM two days before the conference. Firms that treat the consent order as something to bring to the calendar call have already missed the deadline and now have to appear. Decide two days out whether you are submitting on consent or sending someone to Courtroom 282.
Assuming You Can Adjourn
Unlike preliminary conferences, adjournments at the CCP are not granted as a matter of course. No adjournments are permitted except with good cause shown. Do not schedule coverage for the CCP as an afterthought. Plan it before the appearance date.
Not Confirming Opposing Counsel Will Appear
If opposing counsel fails to appear and you do, get that on the record. It protects you and your client, and the court may enter an order against the absent party on default. If neither side appears and no consent order was submitted, the court may mark the action Administratively Dismissed or Marked Off. Confirming appearance with opposing counsel the day before costs two minutes and can prevent weeks of motion practice.
Sending Someone Unfamiliar With the File
The CCP is not purely ministerial. The court may ask substantive questions about the state of discovery or the parties' positions on outstanding disputes. Whoever appears, whether in-house or a per diem attorney, needs to have been properly briefed on the file before they walk in.
Forgetting to Check the Judge's Part Rules
Part Rules are updated regularly. A procedure that worked six months ago in one part may not apply today in another. Always check the specific judge's Part Rules before the appearance. They can override the general CCP rules on timing, forms, and procedure.
When and How to Use a Per Diem Attorney for CCP Coverage
Used correctly, a per diem attorney is one of the most efficient tools a civil litigation firm has. Used carelessly, it creates more exposure than it solves.
When Per Diem Coverage Makes Sense
- Scheduling conflicts -- your team has two CCP appearances on the same morning
- Understaffed litigation departments handling high volumes of Kings County cases
- Out-of-area firms with a single Kings County matter who lack a Brooklyn presence
- Cost-efficiency -- a flat-fee conference appearance at a fraction of associate billing rates
What to Brief Your Per Diem Attorney On
A well-briefed per diem attorney can handle a CCP appearance seamlessly. Give them:
- The current state of discovery -- what has been exchanged, what is outstanding
- Your proposed Note of Issue deadline
- Any open discovery disputes and your client's position
- Opposing counsel's name and contact information
- The judge's Part Rules and any case-specific instructions
What to Expect After the Appearance
A reliable per diem attorney provides a written summary immediately after the appearance: what the court ordered, any deadlines imposed, and the status of the case going forward. At the Law Office of Frederic R. Abramson, every CCP appearance includes a same-day email report so you are never in the dark about what happened in court.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Kings County CCP?
The Kings County CCP (Compliance Conference Part) is a mandatory stage of civil litigation in Kings County Supreme Court. The court uses it to monitor discovery progress, confirm Note of Issue deadlines, and resolve outstanding discovery disputes between the parties.
What time is the calendar call for the Kings County compliance conference?
Under the Kings County Discovery Part Rules updated April 13, 2026, there is a single calendar call in Courtroom 282 at 360 Adams Street, held at 11:00 AM on Tuesdays and Wednesdays and at 11:30 AM on Thursdays. Courtroom 282 opens at 9:30 AM. The CCP-OA Part is called separately at 10:30 AM on Thursdays in Courtroom 362. Check the day of the week on your court notice, because the calendar call time depends on it.
Can I get an adjournment at the Kings County CCP?
No. Adjournments are not permitted except with good cause shown. This is stricter than the preliminary conference stage. Plan your coverage or appearance before the conference date, not the morning of.
What happens if no one appears at the Kings County CCP?
If a consent order was not submitted and no party appears, the court may mark the action Administratively Dismissed or Marked Off on default. Separately, the failure of any single party to answer the calendar call may result in an order being entered against that party on default, the denial of that party's motion if that party is the movant, or another appropriate sanction. Restoring your position afterward requires motion practice, which costs far more than covering the appearance in the first place.
What is a consent order at the CCP?
A consent order is a written agreement among all parties on a revised discovery schedule and Note of Issue deadline. The Discovery Part Rules give you a choice: submit the order with the consent of all parties by 3:00 PM two days before the conference, or appear in person. Insert dates certain rather than intervals such as "within 45 days," or the proposed order will be rejected. On an e-filed case, upload the proposed order to NYSCEF only. The order is not effective until a court attorney has reviewed it and the Judge or JHO has signed it, so the filed NYSCEF order controls and its terms can differ from what the parties proposed.
How do I hire a per diem attorney for a Kings County CCP appearance?
You can order a per diem attorney for Kings County CCP coverage at abramsonlegal.com. Provide the court date, current discovery status, your proposed Note of Issue deadline, and opposing counsel's contact information. A same-day email report is included with every appearance.
Can a per diem attorney negotiate a discovery schedule at the Kings County CCP?
Yes. A per diem attorney appearing at the Kings County CCP can report on discovery status, negotiate deadlines, and sign a compliance conference order with authority from the referring firm.

The Bottom Line
The Kings County CCP has real teeth. One calendar call in Courtroom 282, at 11:00 AM on Tuesdays and Wednesdays and 11:30 AM on Thursdays, no adjournments absent good cause, a consent order deadline that falls two days before the conference, and a court that can mark the action Administratively Dismissed or Marked Off when nobody answers. It is one of the higher-stakes routine appearances in New York civil practice.
Understanding the rules before you appear, or before you assign coverage, is the difference between a resolved conference and a case you have to fight to recover. Whether you are handling the conference yourself or delegating it to a per diem attorney, preparation is everything. Know the file, know your deadlines, and know which day of the week your conference falls on, because that determines what time the calendar is called.
