Who Sits in the Part, and When
The JCP is a named judge’s part, not a rotating administrative calendar. Hon. Pamela L. Fisher presides. She sits in the JCP in Courtroom 224 at 360 Adams Street from January through March and from July through September. From April through June and from October through December she sits in the CTRP and the NJTRP-C in Courtroom 480, and those parts may be held virtually by Microsoft Teams with calendar invitations sent by e-mail. Confirm which part is running before you send anyone to Brooklyn.
Format and Calendar Calls
The JCP is an in-person calendar check-in part. Calendar calls are at 10:00 AM and 11:00 AM. The default time for jury selection, conferences, and applications is 11:00 AM.
The 11:30 AM Rule
If your case is called after 11:30 AM and you are not present, the case may be dismissed, transferred to Civil Court under CPLR 325(d), the Note of Issue may be vacated, or an inquest may be ordered. The part cites 22 NYCRR 202.27 and 202.21(e) as authority. Do not leave the courtroom without permission.
Adjournments
Adjournments by stipulation, letter, phone, e-mail, or fax are not accepted. If you want an adjournment in this part, someone appears and asks for it.
Compromise Orders
The applicant must comply with CPLR 1207 and 1208, Uniform Rule 202.67, and EPTL 5-4.6. Applications for compromise orders are filed electronically through NYSCEF, or, where the action does not participate in NYSCEF, by mail to the Motion Support Office at 360 Adams Street, Room 227. On non-e-filed actions the movant must e-mail Principal Law Clerk Danielle Menendez at dmenend@nycourts.gov to confirm receipt of the petition or motion and to provide a courtesy copy.
Defense counsel must be noticed on every application and document submitted to the court and must appear at the hearing if one is scheduled, unless the appearance and receipt of supporting papers have been waived. Every waiver must be in writing and provided to the court, and it must state that all remaining parties other than the applicant have waived service of the notice of appearance at the hearing and notice of the papers and communications in support of the application.
Once all required documents are submitted, a hearing may be scheduled and conducted virtually by Microsoft Teams at the court’s discretion. Counsel for the plaintiff must appear at the hearing with the client. Under 22 NYCRR 202.5(e)(2), the court requires the infant-petitioner’s full name and date of birth to appear in the order. Every submission must include either a letter offering the proposed settlement amount or a stipulation of the parties reflecting the same.

Practitioner Intelligence
Last updated: August 5, 2026. This section is our own observation from covering the part. It is not published court procedure, and the part rules above control.
What to Expect
The JCP is one of the highest-pressure parts in Kings County. The court expects you to be ready to discuss settlement numbers and, if the case does not settle, to be ready for trial. The calendar moves quickly, and the part rules put real consequences on not being there when your case is called. For a per diem attorney covering a JCP appearance, the whole job is preparation: know the settlement parameters, know the case posture, and have a phone number for the attorney with authority.
Tips
- Bring settlement authority. Whoever appears should have authority to negotiate and settle, or immediate phone access to someone who does. Coming back another day to check with the client is not a plan that works in this part.
- Do not leave the courtroom. This one is in the published rules. If your case is called after 11:30 AM and you are not there, the court may dismiss the case, transfer it to Civil Court under CPLR 325(d), vacate the Note of Issue, or order an inquest. Stay until your case is called or you are excused.
- Do not count on an adjournment request by e-mail. Also in the published rules. Adjournments by stipulation, letter, phone, e-mail, or fax are not accepted.
- Be prepared for immediate jury selection. The default time for jury selection is 11:00 AM. Confirm with the assigning attorney before the appearance whether the covering attorney should pick a jury or seek an adjournment if the case is sent out.
- Check the calendar season. Justice Fisher sits in the JCP January through March and July through September, and in the CTRP and NJTRP-C the rest of the year. Confirm the part and the courtroom before the appearance date.
- Brief your covering attorney fully. Per diem attorneys regularly cover JCP settlement conferences. Send the case posture, the settlement demand, the bottom line, and the opposing party’s last offer, and provide a cell number for real-time communication during negotiations.
